أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُزْجِى سَحَابًا ثُمَّ يُؤَلِّفُ بَيْنَهُۥ ثُمَّ يَجْعَلُهُۥ رُكَامًا فَتَرَى ٱلْوَدْقَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ خِلَٰلِهِۦ وَيُنَزِّلُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مِن جِبَالٍ فِيهَا مِنۢ بَرَدٍ فَيُصِيبُ بِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَصْرِفُهُۥ عَن مَّن يَشَآءُ يَكَادُ سَنَا بَرْقِهِۦ يَذْهَبُ بِٱلْأَبْصَٰرِ

Why this meaning was chosen
Quran-internal comparison across all 22 family occurrences supports relational cohesion for Form II and إيلاف: hearts are joined after enmity, clouds are brought together into a mass, and Quraysh's recurring journeys are tied to an established arrangement. Fourteen exact numeral segments instead require the quantity one thousand in counted years, months, people, or angels and are isolated as an explicit lexical collision. The precise institutional or habitual profile of إيلاف remains reviewable. No protected or pre-run meaning was edited.
