28:4

إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ عَلَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَجَعَلَ أَهْلَهَا شِيَعًا يَسْتَضْعِفُ طَآئِفَةً مِّنْهُمْ يُذَبِّحُ أَبْنَآءَهُمْ وَيَسْتَحْىِۦ نِسَآءَهُمْ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلْمُفْسِدِينَ

Why this meaning was chosen

All nine family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page. Three records are protected by the existing NEEDS_REVIEW hypotheses MH-frontier-tadhbahu-slaughter and MH-frontier-yudhabbih-slaughter and remain untouched; the artifact partitions only the six frozen targets. Three active Form-I verbs predicate slaughtering the commanded cow, Solomon's threatened bird, or Abraham's son in the dream. One passive Form-I verb describes what was slaughtered upon stone altars. One Form-II verb intensifies or iterates Pharaoh's slaughter of sons, and one noun denotes the great sacrifice used as ransom. Tense, person, voice, object suffix, form intensity, and event-noun derivation compose locally. Animal, human, threat, ritual, and ransom settings preserve the same killing-by-cutting core without Quran-internal contradiction. No compacted candidates, aligned reading payload, or unresolved issue remains.
