69:17

وَٱلْمَلَكُ عَلَىٰٓ أَرْجَآئِهَا وَيَحْمِلُ عَرْشَ رَبِّكَ فَوْقَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ ثَمَٰنِيَةٌ

Why this meaning was chosen

Reviewed all 28 frozen occurrences on the complete 100-item page. There are no protected records, compacted proposals, or failure candidates. Seven aligned witnesses were inspected at 7:111, 9:106, 33:51, 69:17, and 71:13. The witnesses preserve deferral through both hamzated and unhamzated surface forms, ordinary expectation, and the distinct spatial أرجائها construction. The one-core test retains hope, expectation, and deferral as forward-looking configurations; only the sky-edge noun is restricted as an exact lexical collision.
