Why this meaning was chosen
The sole family occurrence was reviewed on one bounded page; it is the only frozen target, with no protected records or compacted candidates. Quran 51:15-19 describes the God-fearing in gardens, says they used to sleep only a little of the night, sought forgiveness before dawn, and assigned a share of their wealth to the needy. Form I active imperfect, third-person masculine plural agreement, indicative mood, the preceding كَانُوا habitual frame, and the قَلِيلًا quantity phrase compose locally. No aligned reading payload, counterexample, or unresolved issue is present.
