﴿الْمَالُ وَالْبَنُونَ زِينَةُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا﴾
Wealth and children are an adornment of worldly life. (Al-Kahf 18:46)
Members: Wealth and children are two distinct referents.
Shared judgment: “the adornment of worldly life” is predicated of both.
The verse does not claim that wealth and children share every property. They are gathered under one relevant consideration: their status as worldly adornment.
One encompassing predicate makes the connection visible without lengthy repetition. The audience receives both the plurality and the perspective that unites it.
