7:187

يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلسَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَىٰهَا قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِندَ رَبِّى لَا يُجَلِّيهَا لِوَقْتِهَآ إِلَّا هُوَ ثَقُلَتْ فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ لَا تَأْتِيكُمْ إِلَّا بَغْتَةً يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ كَأَنَّكَ حَفِىٌّ عَنْهَا قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen

Quran-internal review covered all three occurrences. The adjective at 7:187 presents presumed close engagement with the Hour, the adjective at 19:47 describes sustained favorable attention toward Abraham, and Form IV at 47:37 intensifies a demand until it presses the addressees. The affected domain changes, but each construction profiles attention carried to a high degree. The aligned-reading field supplies no variant requiring a separate rule. Whether 7:187 emphasizes acquired information or persistent inquiry remains a segment-linked review point; no protected meaning was edited and no exact lexical collision was found.
