It produces its fruit all the time, by permission of its Lord. And Allah presents examples for the people that perhaps they will be reminded.

And the example of a bad word is like a bad tree, uprooted from the surface of the earth, not having any stability.

Allah keeps firm those who believe, with the firm word, in worldly life and in the Hereafter. And Allah sends astray the wrongdoers. And Allah does what He wills.

Have you not considered those who exchanged the favor of Allah for disbelief and settled their people [in] the home of ruin?

[It is] Hell, which they will [enter to] burn, and wretched is the settlement.
