Why this meaning was chosen
Quran-internal review covered the sole occurrence of the masculine noun رَدْم at 18:95. Dhul-Qarnayn asks the people to assist him with strength so he can place it between them and the threatening people; the adjacent construction account uses iron blocks and poured molten material, and its result cannot be scaled or pierced. Placement between the groups, material construction, and prevention of passage establish a substantial closing barrier. The target is indefinite accusative singular. The aligned-reading field supplies no variant requiring a separate rule; no protected meaning was edited and no exact lexical collision was found.
