12:85

قَالُوا۟ تَٱللَّهِ تَفْتَؤُا۟ تَذْكُرُ يُوسُفَ حَتَّىٰ تَكُونَ حَرَضًا أَوْ تَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْهَٰلِكِينَ

28:88

وَلَا تَدْعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ هَالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُۥ لَهُ ٱلْحُكْمُ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen

All 68 family occurrences were reviewed on one page, with no protected segments and no witness divergence. Quran 4:176 anchors individual death, 28:88 generalizes the terminal state to every created thing, and the extensive Form IV set consistently causes that state. Every canonical, branch, and rule rendering is singular.
