21:42

قُلْ مَن يَكْلَؤُكُم بِٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ مِنَ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ بَلْ هُمْ عَن ذِكْرِ رَبِّهِم مُّعْرِضُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen

The single family occurrence was reviewed on one page. The rhetorical question asks who could guard people by night and day from the Merciful, denying any independent protector.
