فَلَمَّا قَضَىٰ مُوسَى ٱلْأَجَلَ وَسَارَ بِأَهْلِهِۦٓ ءَانَسَ مِن جَانِبِ ٱلطُّورِ نَارًا قَالَ لِأَهْلِهِ ٱمْكُثُوٓا۟ إِنِّىٓ ءَانَسْتُ نَارًا لَّعَلِّىٓ ءَاتِيكُم مِّنْهَا بِخَبَرٍ أَوْ جَذْوَةٍ مِّنَ ٱلنَّارِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَصْطَلُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen
Quran-internal review covered the sole occurrence of جَذْوَة at 28:29. Moses sees a fire and tells his family to remain while he seeks either news or a firebrand from that fire so they may warm themselves. The partitive from the fire, intended transport, and warming purpose establish a portable burning piece rather than the whole fire or mere information about it. The target is an indefinite singular noun. The aligned-reading field supplies no variant requiring a separate rule; no protected meaning was edited and no exact lexical collision was found.
