7:86

وَلَا تَقْعُدُوا۟ بِكُلِّ صِرَٰطٍ تُوعِدُونَ وَتَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ مَنْ ءَامَنَ بِهِۦ وَتَبْغُونَهَا عِوَجًا وَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ إِذْ كُنتُمْ قَلِيلًا فَكَثَّرَكُمْ وَٱنظُرُوا۟ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُفْسِدِينَ

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.
