Why this meaning was chosen

Quran-internal review covered all three occurrences. The paired forms at 21:12 and 21:13 describe a condemned people driving their feet in flight after sensing punishment. The imperative at 38:42 directs Job to act with his foot, immediately revealing cool water for washing and drinking. Running and a single directed foot-impact share vigorous foot action against the ground. The aligned-reading field supplies no variant requiring a separate rule; no protected meaning was edited and no exact lexical collision was found.
