6:142

وَمِنَ ٱلْأَنْعَٰمِ حَمُولَةً وَفَرْشًا كُلُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا۟ خُطُوَٰتِ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ

51:48

وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَٰهِدُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen

The target verb directly describes the earth being spread. The livestock noun is contrasted with load-bearing animals and marks the low, ground-near class. The fatḥa-vocalized creature lemma فَرَاش in 101:4 is lexicalized as moths and is distinct from kasra-vocalized فِرَاش bedding; its dispersed state is supplied separately by مَبْثُوث. Protected bedding occurrences are outside this artifact's rules and branches.
