وَمَا يَسْتَوِى ٱلْبَحْرَانِ هَٰذَا عَذْبٌ فُرَاتٌ سَآئِغٌ شَرَابُهُۥ وَهَٰذَا مِلْحٌ أُجَاجٌ وَمِن كُلٍّ تَأْكُلُونَ لَحْمًا طَرِيًّا وَتَسْتَخْرِجُونَ حِلْيَةً تَلْبَسُونَهَا وَتَرَى ٱلْفُلْكَ فِيهِ مَوَاخِرَ لِتَبْتَغُوا۟ مِن فَضْلِهِۦ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ
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 25:53 and 35:12 repeat the exact contrast هَٰذَا عَذْبٌ فُرَاتٌ ... وَهَٰذَا مِلْحٌ أُجَاجٌ. The following أُجَاجٌ intensifies the salt water's harsh quality rather than creating another sense for مِلْح. Both targets are identical indefinite nominative predicates. No aligned reading payload, counterexample, or unresolved issue is present.
