فِى جِيدِهَا حَبْلٌ مِّن مَّسَدٍۭ

Why this meaning was chosen

The sole occurrence follows from in the construction a rope from masad. That securely establishes a rope material, but the Quranic verse does not identify its substance more narrowly, so transliteration avoids importing a specific fiber.
