    and their Medinan hosts, records a prayer of later believers, condemns disaffected

    the Fire and Paradise, presents a parable of the Koran humbling and splitting
    a mountain, enumerates divine attributes, and begins Sura XXXIII with instructions
    to the Prophet about trust in God and legal-kinship distinctions.

    so that wealth does not circulate only among the rich.

    match is functional rather than explicit.

    them despite their own poverty, followed by a prayer for solidarity among believers.
  evidence_refs:

    passage declares they would not fulfill these promises.

    Satan specifically as tempter, not as a playful trickster.

    would humble itself and cleave asunder for fear of God.
  evidence_refs:

  confidence: medium
  cautions: The mountain does not function as a climbed axis or world center here;
    the ascent taxonomy is weak and only the descent of revelation is explicit.

  basis: God’s exclusive divinity, knowledge of visible and invisible things, creative
    titles, and praise from all in the heavens and earth are enumerated.
  evidence_refs:

  confidence: medium
  cautions: This is theological praise rather than a narrative motif.
- id: motif:9
  label: prophetic kinship reorders communal family categories
  taxonomy_refs:

  basis: The Prophet is said to be nearer to the faithful than themselves; his wives
    are their mothers, while adopted sons are distinguished from biological sons.
  evidence_refs:
  - ev:14
  - ev:15
  confidence: medium
  cautions: The motif is legal-theological and social; the covenant reference is an
    approximate community-formation category.
comparison_claims:

  claim: The mountain humbled by revelation is cautiously compared by the translator’s
    footnote to a Rabbinical idea about Mount Sinai’s humility in connection with
    revelation to Moses.

    footnote
  evidence_refs:

  counter_evidence_refs: []
  confidence: low
  limitations: The footnote states this only as a possibility; the passage itself
    does not name Sinai or narrate the Rabbinical tradition.

confidence:
  extraction: high
  motif_candidates: medium
  comparison_claims: low
  notes: Literal extraction is strong because the passage is explicit. Motif taxonomy
    assignments are sometimes approximate because much of the passage is legal, exhortative,
    and theological rather than mythic narrative. The single comparison claim depends
    on a speculative translator footnote.
