67:8

تَكَادُ تَمَيَّزُ مِنَ ٱلْغَيْظِ كُلَّمَآ أُلْقِىَ فِيهَا فَوْجٌ سَأَلَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَآ أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَذِيرٌ

Why this meaning was chosen

Form I transitively separates the corrupt from the wholesome. Form VIII commands a group to withdraw as a distinct class, and Form V depicts the Fire nearly separating within itself from rage. The moral sorting and structural rending share emergence of distinct parts from a prior whole.
