Why this meaning was chosen
Quran-internal review covered the sole occurrence of Form I نَتَقْنَا at 7:171. God performs the action upon the mountain so that it is above the people like a canopy, and they think it is about to fall upon them. The mountain object, explicit resulting position فَوْقَهُمْ, canopy comparison, and feared fall establish lifting and suspension overhead. The target is first-person plural perfect. The aligned-reading field supplies no variant requiring a separate rule; no protected meaning was edited and no exact lexical collision was found.
