14:24. Seest thou not how Allah sets forth a parable? a goodly Word like a goodly tree whose root is firmly fixed and its branches (reach) to the heavens
14:25. It brings forth its fruit at all times by the leave of its Lord. So Allah sets forth parables for men in order that they may receive admonition.
14:26. And the parable of an evil Word is that of an evil tree. It is torn up by the root from the surface of the earth: it has no stability.
14:27. Allah will establish in strength those who believe with the Word that stands firm in this world and in the Hereafter; but Allah will leave to stray those who do wrong: Allah doeth what He willeth.
Hadith on Explicit and Implicit
Ibn Mas'ud reported the Prophet (pbuh) said: "The Quran was sent down in seven dialects. Every one of its verses has an explicit and implicit meaning and every interdiction is clearly defined"
The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: "Three things will be under the throne on the Day of Resurrection: the Qur'an which will contend with men, having an exoteric and an esoteric meaning; The Trust; and ties of relationship which will say, 'Allah, join those who joined me and sever those who severed me'!" MISHKAT AL-MASABIH 2133
