Why this meaning was chosen

All 14 occurrences were reviewed together on one bounded page, with no compacted candidates or protected segments. Quran 14:22 anchors the Form I action through the contrast between blaming the speaker and blaming oneself; 5:54 places the action noun beside its active participant. The passive participle consistently marks one who is blamed, Form IV marks one who has incurred blame, Form VI distributes blame reciprocally, and the intensive adjective characterizes a persistent blamer. No witness-sensitive or unresolved semantic contradiction remains.
