72:19

وَأَنَّهُۥ لَمَّا قَامَ عَبْدُ ٱللَّهِ يَدْعُوهُ كَادُوا۟ يَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهِ لِبَدًا

90:6

يَقُولُ أَهْلَكْتُ مَالًا لُّبَدًا

Why this meaning was chosen

Both family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page; both are frozen targets, with no protected records or compacted candidates. Quran 72:19 presents people nearly becoming dense masses around God's servant, while 90:6 qualifies wealth as amassed in quantity. The plural nominal use versus singular adjectival use and their local referents supply natural contextual wording while retaining accumulation as one core. No aligned reading payload, Quran-internal contradiction, or unresolved issue is present.
