Why this meaning was chosen
All 80 family occurrences were reviewed in one page. The family itself moves from concrete heels and turning back, through posterior descendants and outcomes, to punishment as a consequence that follows conduct. Form III at 16:126 and 22:60 explicitly matches a response to what was first done, while Form II/IV expressions mark following, succeeding, or turning back. The 60:11 compensation sequence remains reviewable because Quran-internal evidence supports a succeeding turn but does not fully determine its English event label. The seven aligned witnesses were checked at 13:11, 60:11, and 90:11 and preserve the relevant constructions. No accepted meaning or pre-run draft was edited.
