Why this meaning was chosen

Reviewed the sole frozen occurrence on the complete 100-item page. There are no protected meanings, compacted proposals, failure candidates, or aligned witness variants on the target row. Quran 37:142 makes the fish the agent that التقم Jonah after he is cast out; 37:143-144 then locates the consequence in the fish's belly. The agent, whole human object, and belly destination establish complete swallowing.
