34:19

فَقَالُوا۟ رَبَّنَا بَٰعِدْ بَيْنَ أَسْفَارِنَا وَظَلَمُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ أَحَادِيثَ وَمَزَّقْنَٰهُمْ كُلَّ مُمَزَّقٍ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَٰتٍ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٍ شَكُورٍ

Why this meaning was chosen

Quran-internal review covered all four occurrences, arranged as two emphatic verb-plus-cognate expressions in surah 34. At 34:7 the passive construction describes bodily disintegration before renewed creation; at 34:19 the active construction describes a people dispersed after their settlements and travel pattern collapse. Physical pieces and social members instantiate the same complete separation core. The aligned-reading field supplies no variant requiring a separate rule; no protected meaning was edited and no exact lexical collision was found.
