وَلِسَانًا وَشَفَتَيْنِ

Why this meaning was chosen

The sole family occurrence was reviewed on one bounded page; it is the only frozen target, with no protected records or compacted candidates. Quran 90:8-10 asks whether God gave the human two eyes, a tongue, and two lips, then showed him the two paths. The feminine dual accusative form and coordination with the accusative tongue object compose locally. No aligned reading payload, counterexample, or unresolved issue is present.
