86:2

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ

Why this meaning was chosen

All 11 occurrences were inspected. Four protected طَرِيق road segments remain untouched under their accepted owner. Five editable طَرِيقَة and طَرَائِق segments extend the course profile to a leading way, a person's manner, diverse group courses, and seven created structures above. The two exact الطَّارِق segments are isolated as a collision because 86:3 identifies their referent as the piercing star, a celestial entity rather than a traversable or behavioral course. The precise sevenfold structure and the star title remain explicit review questions.
