Lord

CRITICAL: unlike Arabic’s al-Rabb, Khodavand derives from a native pre-Islamic Persian word (Middle Persian ‘khwatay’) rather than a specific Quranic title, so the collision here is less about ‘borrowing the Quran’s own word’ and more about the underlying tawhid objection to ascribing supreme, exclusive Lordship to a human-born man. سرور (chief/leader) is too weak and rejected.
