إِلَيْهِ يُرَدُّ عِلْمُ ٱلسَّاعَةِ وَمَا تَخْرُجُ مِن ثَمَرَٰتٍ مِّنْ أَكْمَامِهَا وَمَا تَحْمِلُ مِنْ أُنثَىٰ وَلَا تَضَعُ إِلَّا بِعِلْمِهِۦ وَيَوْمَ يُنَادِيهِمْ أَيْنَ شُرَكَآءِى قَالُوٓا۟ ءَاذَنَّٰكَ مَا مِنَّا مِن شَهِيدٍ

55:11

فِيهَا فَٰكِهَةٌ وَٱلنَّخْلُ ذَاتُ ٱلْأَكْمَامِ

Why this meaning was chosen

Reviewed both frozen occurrences on the complete 100-item page. There are no protected meanings, compacted proposals, failure candidates, or aligned witness variants on the target rows. One passage expressly describes fruits emerging from their أكمام; the other characterizes palms as possessing أكمام alongside their fruit. Containment before emergence supplies one plant-envelope referent.
