5:13

فَبِمَا نَقْضِهِم مِّيثَٰقَهُمْ لَعَنَّٰهُمْ وَجَعَلْنَا قُلُوبَهُمْ قَٰسِيَةً يُحَرِّفُونَ ٱلْكَلِمَ عَن مَّوَاضِعِهِۦ وَنَسُوا۟ حَظًّا مِّمَّا ذُكِّرُوا۟ بِهِۦ وَلَا تَزَالُ تَطَّلِعُ عَلَىٰ خَآئِنَةٍ مِّنْهُمْ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا مِّنْهُمْ فَٱعْفُ عَنْهُمْ وَٱصْفَحْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ

Why this meaning was chosen

Quran-internal core tested across all 16 family occurrences and targets. Form I violates loyalty owed to Allah, the messenger, entrusted deposits, another person, or a spouse. Form VIII directs that breach back against the acting selves. The verbal noun names the breach, خائن profiles its agents, and intensive خَوَّان profiles a repeated betrayer. The feminine خائنة is contextualized separately at 5:13 and 40:19 because its precise act-versus-agent scope is not fixed by morphology alone. No protected meaning, audit candidate, or exact lexical collision was present.
