2:114

وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّن مَّنَعَ مَسَٰجِدَ ٱللَّهِ أَن يُذْكَرَ فِيهَا ٱسْمُهُۥ وَسَعَىٰ فِى خَرَابِهَآ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ مَا كَانَ لَهُمْ أَن يَدْخُلُوهَآ إِلَّا خَآئِفِينَ لَهُمْ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا خِزْىٌ وَلَهُمْ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ

Why this meaning was chosen

Both family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page; each is a frozen target, with no protected records or compacted candidates. At 2:114 the action noun is the damaging desolation sought for places of worship. At 59:2 form IV actively causes the residents' houses to lose their intact structure. Nominal event, form IV causation, tense, person, number, direct object, and possessive suffix compose locally. Sacred-building desolation and house destruction instantiate one structural-ruin core. No aligned reading payload or unresolved issue remains.
