Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: “Indeed, it is a tree that grows at the bottom of the Hellfire, whose fruit is like the heads of devils.”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Then Allah (Mighty and Majestic) said in the new lesson:
Indeed, it is a tree issuing from the bottom of the Hellfire, إنها شجرة تخرج في أصل الجحيم
[As-Saffat 37:64]
There is a connection between these sentences, not a disconnection; it is a rhetorical connection.
The student: A connection.

The Shaykh : There is no disconnection between them, because connection is the conjunction with the letter "waw," and here every sentence is independent. The wisdom behind this is so that a person learns about this tree from each verse independently, as if each attribute is sufficient without the other attributes. Just as it is a trial for the wrongdoers, this is one of the greatest of the attributes to be feared when denying this tree.
