وَلَٰكِنَّآ أَنشَأْنَا قُرُونًا فَتَطَاوَلَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْعُمُرُ وَمَا كُنتَ ثَاوِيًا فِىٓ أَهْلِ مَدْيَنَ تَتْلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَايَٰتِنَا وَلَٰكِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ
مَّا يَفْتَحِ ٱللَّهُ لِلنَّاسِ مِن رَّحْمَةٍ فَلَا مُمْسِكَ لَهَا وَمَا يُمْسِكْ فَلَا مُرْسِلَ لَهُۥ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِۦ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ
أَمْرًا مِّنْ عِندِنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ
إِنَّا مُرْسِلُوا۟ ٱلنَّاقَةِ فِتْنَةً لَّهُمْ فَٱرْتَقِبْهُمْ وَٱصْطَبِرْ
Why this meaning was chosen
All 513 frozen occurrences across 429 ayahs were reviewed in six pages. The verb dispatches people, messengers, winds, rain, affliction, and other agents without changing the departure-toward-an-end core. Rasul names a messenger, risalah names the message carried, and Form IV participles mark the sender or sent party. The three compacted noun candidates were reconciled across the complete family and were not treated as decisions. The seven aligned witnesses were consulted at 20:47, 26:16, 27:35, 28:45, 35:2, 44:5, 54:27, and 77:1; they preserve the relevant active, passive, number, and construction distinctions. No accepted meaning or pre-run draft was edited.
