11:32

قَالُوا۟ يَٰنُوحُ قَدْ جَٰدَلْتَنَا فَأَكْثَرْتَ جِدَٰلَنَا فَأْتِنَا بِمَا تَعِدُنَآ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ

فَأَكْثَرُوا۟ فِيهَا ٱلْفَسَادَ

Why this meaning was chosen

All 167 family occurrences were reviewed across two pages. Two protected occurrences remain untouched. Quran 4:7 directly opposes the Form I state to being little, while majority, comparison, causation, accumulation, rivalry, adjective, and intensive-gift contexts preserve one abundance core. Every canonical, branch, and rule rendering is singular.
