6:96

فَالِقُ ٱلْإِصْبَاحِ وَجَعَلَ ٱلَّيْلَ سَكَنًا وَٱلشَّمْسَ وَٱلْقَمَرَ حُسْبَانًا ذَٰلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْعَلِيمِ

10:5

هُوَ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ ٱلشَّمْسَ ضِيَآءً وَٱلْقَمَرَ نُورًا وَقَدَّرَهُۥ مَنَازِلَ لِتَعْلَمُوا۟ عَدَدَ ٱلسِّنِينَ وَٱلْحِسَابَ مَا خَلَقَ ٱللَّهُ ذَٰلِكَ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ يُفَصِّلُ ٱلْـَٔايَٰتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَعْلَمُونَ

17:12

وَجَعَلْنَا ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ ءَايَتَيْنِ فَمَحَوْنَآ ءَايَةَ ٱلَّيْلِ وَجَعَلْنَآ ءَايَةَ ٱلنَّهَارِ مُبْصِرَةً لِّتَبْتَغُوا۟ فَضْلًا مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَلِتَعْلَمُوا۟ عَدَدَ ٱلسِّنِينَ وَٱلْحِسَابَ وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ فَصَّلْنَٰهُ تَفْصِيلًا

55:5

ٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْقَمَرُ بِحُسْبَانٍ

Why this meaning was chosen

All 109 family occurrences and both pages were reviewed. The one-core test uses reckon for mental assessment, formal accounting, calculation, measured amount, expectation, and sufficiency. The destructive husban at 18:40 is isolated as an exact lexical collision because its garden-destroying result contradicts the calculative use at 55:5. The compacted audit supplied no proposals or failure candidates. Seven aligned recitation witnesses were checked at 6:96, 18:40, 55:5, and 78:36; they preserve the relevant forms and constructions. The adjectival scope of hisaban at 78:36 remains explicitly reviewable. No accepted meaning or pre-run draft was edited.
