3:153

إِذْ تُصْعِدُونَ وَلَا تَلْوُۥنَ عَلَىٰٓ أَحَدٍ وَٱلرَّسُولُ يَدْعُوكُمْ فِىٓ أُخْرَىٰكُمْ فَأَثَٰبَكُمْ غَمًّۢا بِغَمٍّ لِّكَيْلَا تَحْزَنُوا۟ عَلَىٰ مَا فَاتَكُمْ وَلَا مَآ أَصَٰبَكُمْ وَٱللَّهُ خَبِيرٌۢ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ

63:5

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَعَالَوْا۟ يَسْتَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ لَوَّوْا۟ رُءُوسَهُمْ وَرَأَيْتَهُمْ يَصُدُّونَ وَهُم مُّسْتَكْبِرُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen

Reviewed all 5 frozen occurrences on the complete 100-item page. There are no protected records, compacted proposals, failure candidates, or aligned witness variants on the target rows. Tongues and testimony are bent away from direct expression; fleeing people do not turn toward anyone; rejecting leaders turn their heads away. Form II intensifies the physical gesture, while the action noun profiles the verbal distortion. All scopes preserve one directional bending core without a Quran-internal collision.
