14:44

وَأَنذِرِ ٱلنَّاسَ يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ فَيَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ رَبَّنَآ أَخِّرْنَآ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ قَرِيبٍ نُّجِبْ دَعْوَتَكَ وَنَتَّبِعِ ٱلرُّسُلَ أَوَلَمْ تَكُونُوٓا۟ أَقْسَمْتُم مِّن قَبْلُ مَا لَكُم مِّن زَوَالٍ

Why this meaning was chosen

All four family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page; every occurrence is a frozen target, with no protected records or compacted candidates. The verbal noun in 14:44 negates departure from worldly stability. Form I verbs present mountains, the heavens, and the earth as potentially moving from their established position; tense, mood, person, gender, dual agreement, and prevention clauses compose morphologically. Physical displacement and cessation of an established condition are contextual applications of departure, not Quran-internal contradictions. No aligned reading payload or unresolved issue remains.
