20:18

قَالَ هِىَ عَصَاىَ أَتَوَكَّؤُا۟ عَلَيْهَا وَأَهُشُّ بِهَا عَلَىٰ غَنَمِى وَلِىَ فِيهَا مَـَٔارِبُ أُخْرَىٰ

Why this meaning was chosen

The sole family occurrence was reviewed on one bounded page; it is the only frozen target, with no protected records or compacted candidates. Quran 20:17-18 asks Moses about the object in his right hand; he identifies it as his staff, says he leans on it and uses it to beat down fodder for his sheep, and mentions further uses. Form I active imperfect, first-person singular agreement, indicative mood, the بِهَا staff instrument, and عَلَىٰ غَنَمِي beneficiary phrase compose locally. The wording does not identify a plant species, so the draft does not add one. No aligned reading payload, counterexample, or unresolved issue is present.
