Why this meaning was chosen

All 27 family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page; all are frozen targets, with no protected records or compacted candidates. Quran 6:31 explicitly depicts liabilities carried on backs, while the repeated 'no bearer bears another's burden' construction links noun, verb, and participant. Physical ornaments and warfare supply literal or concrete loads, and وَزِير names a supporter assigned to share a messenger's work. Quran 75:10–11 forces an exact وَزَر collision: the answer to 'where is escape?' is 'no refuge,' not the burden core. No recitation-sensitive or unresolved contradiction remains.
