Why this meaning was chosen

Reviewed all four frozen occurrences on the complete 100-item page. There are no protected meanings, compacted proposals, failure candidates, or aligned witness variants on the target rows. Three celestial contexts identify the sun as a radiant, blazing source and distinguish it from the moon's received light. The messenger is called an illuminating سراج within his commissioned guidance, extending the same outward-illumination core into a human mission.
