Why this meaning was chosen
Quran-internal review covered all three occurrences. The noun is coordinated with fatigue and hunger as an endured physical condition, the Form I predicate denies that condition in the garden, and the state noun identifies the person who mistakes a mirage for water. Water-seeking behavior at 24:39 anchors the shared bodily need directly. The aligned-reading field supplies no variant requiring a separate rule. No protected meaning was edited and no exact lexical collision was found.
