ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ فِى ٱلسَّرَّآءِ وَٱلضَّرَّآءِ وَٱلْكَٰظِمِينَ ٱلْغَيْظَ وَٱلْعَافِينَ عَنِ ٱلنَّاسِ وَٱللَّهُ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ

40:18

وَأَنذِرْهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْـَٔازِفَةِ إِذِ ٱلْقُلُوبُ لَدَى ٱلْحَنَاجِرِ كَٰظِمِينَ مَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنْ حَمِيمٍ وَلَا شَفِيعٍ يُطَاعُ

Why this meaning was chosen

All six family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page; every occurrence is a frozen target, with no protected records or compacted candidates. Two active participles characterize people as holding anger or constricted emotion in. Three intensive كَظِيم descriptors present Jacob or a person angered by news as choked with unexpressed emotion. One passive participle presents the companion of the fish as constrained by pent-up distress when he calls out. Participial voice, intensity, number, case, explicit emotion object, subject, and circumstantial predication compose locally. Anger, grief, fear, and distress are different contents of the same inward containment rather than Quran-internal lexical contradictions. No aligned reading payload or unresolved issue remains.
