33:59

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ قُل لِّأَزْوَٰجِكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَنِسَآءِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يُدْنِينَ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِن جَلَٰبِيبِهِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ أَدْنَىٰٓ أَن يُعْرَفْنَ فَلَا يُؤْذَيْنَ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا

53:8

ثُمَّ دَنَا فَتَدَلَّىٰ

Why this meaning was chosen

Reviewed all 133 Quran-family occurrences across both required 100-item pages. The 132 frozen targets were partitioned exactly; the single protected pre-run lower record at 2:61 owned by MH-frontier-adna-lower was treated only as context and was not edited. Two compacted dunya-nearer proposal records with the same candidate ID and different candidate hashes were reviewed only as suggestions; their present-versus-later contrast was independently supported, while the spatial dunya segments were partitioned separately. No failure candidate required review. Seven aligned witnesses were inspected at 8:42, 30:3, 32:21, 33:59, 53:8-9, 58:7, and 73:20; none resolves the two English-choice challenges. The one-core test retains worldly, spatial, comparative, motion, and reachable-fruit uses as dimensional applications of relative nearness.
