w/salaam,
Ahh, I never noticed that. I would assume it is determined by what is said in the verse, however I am not sure how accurate the corpus tagging is with regard to that. There are many other examples according to corpus, e.g.
http://corpus.quran.com/wordmorphology.jsp?location=(2:8:9)
http://corpus.quran.com/wordmorphology.jsp?location=(8:5:7)
http://corpus.quran.com/wordmorphology.jsp?location=(6:161:13)
http://corpus.quran.com/wordmorphology.jsp?location=(3:65:7)
http://corpus.quran.com/wordmorphology.jsp?location=(9:56:5)
etc etc.
Corpus seems to suggest "while". I have no problem with "while" or simply "and". It would be interesting to see if there was a pattern in the usage, but this would likely involve studying hundreds of occurrences.
