20:134

وَلَوْ أَنَّآ أَهْلَكْنَٰهُم بِعَذَابٍ مِّن قَبْلِهِۦ لَقَالُوا۟ رَبَّنَا لَوْلَآ أَرْسَلْتَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولًا فَنَتَّبِعَ ءَايَٰتِكَ مِن قَبْلِ أَن نَّذِلَّ وَنَخْزَىٰ

Why this meaning was chosen

All 26 family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page. The compacted noun proposal was reconciled across the verbs, participant, and elative: Quran 16:27 places the causative verb and noun in the same scene, Quran 3:192 equates entry into the Fire with being caused disgrace, and Quran 41:16 explicitly compares the later punishment as more disgraceful. The noun consistently accompanies worldly punishment, fear, or final judgment. No protected segment, witness-sensitive context, or unresolved counterexample remains.
