قُلْ كُلٌّ يَعْمَلُ عَلَىٰ شَاكِلَتِهِۦ فَرَبُّكُمْ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ هُوَ أَهْدَىٰ سَبِيلًا

Why this meaning was chosen

Both occurrences were reviewed. One noun is a person's characteristic disposition shaping action; the other marks punishments matching an already named kind. Correspondence to an internal form unifies them.
