وَأَنذِرْهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْـَٔازِفَةِ إِذِ ٱلْقُلُوبُ لَدَى ٱلْحَنَاجِرِ كَٰظِمِينَ مَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنْ حَمِيمٍ وَلَا شَفِيعٍ يُطَاعُ
Why this meaning was chosen
Both family occurrences were reviewed on one page. Each is the plural حَنَاجِر in the image of hearts reaching or standing near the throats under extreme fear; case variation does not change the anatomical sense.
