ٱلطَّلَٰقُ مَرَّتَانِ فَإِمْسَاكٌۢ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ تَسْرِيحٌۢ بِإِحْسَٰنٍ وَلَا يَحِلُّ لَكُمْ أَن تَأْخُذُوا۟ مِمَّآ ءَاتَيْتُمُوهُنَّ شَيْـًٔا إِلَّآ أَن يَخَافَآ أَلَّا يُقِيمَا حُدُودَ ٱللَّهِ فَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَلَّا يُقِيمَا حُدُودَ ٱللَّهِ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِمَا فِيمَا ٱفْتَدَتْ بِهِۦ تِلْكَ حُدُودُ ٱللَّهِ فَلَا تَعْتَدُوهَا وَمَن يَتَعَدَّ حُدُودَ ٱللَّهِ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen

Quran-internal comparison across all 13 family occurrences supports substituted release as the shared core. Form III and فداء release captives by exchange; فدية supplies a prescribed substitute for a duty or is denied at final judgment; Form VIII offers something to release oneself from marriage or punishment; Form I replaces Abraham's son with a sacrifice. Candidate LAA-2-84-93-tufadun-ransom was inspected only as non-authoritative brainstorming and was neither mutated nor accepted. No protected or pre-run meaning was edited, and no exact segment set forces a lexical collision.
