فَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ فَضَرْبَ ٱلرِّقَابِ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَثْخَنتُمُوهُمْ فَشُدُّوا۟ ٱلْوَثَاقَ فَإِمَّا مَنًّۢا بَعْدُ وَإِمَّا فِدَآءً حَتَّىٰ تَضَعَ ٱلْحَرْبُ أَوْزَارَهَا ذَٰلِكَ وَلَوْ يَشَآءُ ٱللَّهُ لَٱنتَصَرَ مِنْهُمْ وَلَٰكِن لِّيَبْلُوَا۟ بَعْضَكُم بِبَعْضٍ وَٱلَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا۟ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ فَلَن يُضِلَّ أَعْمَٰلَهُمْ

Why this meaning was chosen
All 34 family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page. The 25 protected مِيثَاق binding records remain untouched. The nine frozen targets comprise two firmest-handhold superlatives, one covenantal Form III verb, three pledged guarantees, two restraint nouns, and one causative binding verb. Quran 2:256 links firmness to absence of breaking, while 89:26 pairs verb and cognate restraint. No compacted candidates, recitation-sensitive readings, collisions, or unresolved contradictions occur.
