فَأَنجَيْنَٰهُ وَٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُۥ بِرَحْمَةٍ مِّنَّا وَقَطَعْنَا دَابِرَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُؤْمِنِينَ
وَإِذْ يَعِدُكُمُ ٱللَّهُ إِحْدَى ٱلطَّآئِفَتَيْنِ أَنَّهَا لَكُمْ وَتَوَدُّونَ أَنَّ غَيْرَ ذَاتِ ٱلشَّوْكَةِ تَكُونُ لَكُمْ وَيُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ أَن يُحِقَّ ٱلْحَقَّ بِكَلِمَٰتِهِۦ وَيَقْطَعَ دَابِرَ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ
وَقَضَيْنَآ إِلَيْهِ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْأَمْرَ أَنَّ دَابِرَ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ مَقْطُوعٌ مُّصْبِحِينَ
Why this meaning was chosen
All 44 family occurrences were reviewed on one page. Quran 12:25-28 anchors the physical rear through a shirt torn from behind; 15:65 uses plural backs for following a departing group; 6:45 and its parallels cut off the final remnant; 10:3 and 32:5 direct an affair through its ordered course; and 4:82 reflects beyond a text's surface to test its consequences. The aligned witnesses at 74:33 divide between Form IV أَدْبَرَ and Form I دَبَرَ, but both make the night recede, so the morphology varies without a semantic challenge. All 44 targets are partitioned by construction and derived form.
