49:10

إِنَّمَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ فَأَصْلِحُوا۟ بَيْنَ أَخَوَيْكُمْ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen

All 96 family occurrences were reviewed on one page, with no protected segments or compacted candidates. Quran 5:30 anchors a biological brother, Quran 20:40 anchors a biological sister, Quran 7:65 calls Hud the brother of his people, and Quran 49:10 extends the same relation to believers and immediately uses the masculine dual. The lexical relation remains stable across biological, nursing, tribal, covenantal, and faith contexts; the exact 96-segment partition is purely gender and number composition. No witness-sensitive context or unresolved challenge remains.
