Why this meaning was chosen

Quran-internal core tested across all 33 family occurrences. The two protected ظَلَّلْنَا segments owned by MH-frontier-zallalna-shaded were inspected but not edited. The 14 ظِلّ nouns profile shade extending over space, six ظُلّة nouns profile a covering layer, and two ظليل adjectives profile the capacity to provide that cover. Nine finite ظَلَّ forms extend a state through time and therefore render compositionally as remaining in it. The spatial and temporal branches preserve one extension relation; no exact lexical collision or unresolved counterexample was found.
