14:24

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ ضَرَبَ ٱللَّهُ مَثَلًا كَلِمَةً طَيِّبَةً كَشَجَرَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ أَصْلُهَا ثَابِتٌ وَفَرْعُهَا فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ

37:64

إِنَّهَا شَجَرَةٌ تَخْرُجُ فِىٓ أَصْلِ ٱلْجَحِيمِ

59:5

مَا قَطَعْتُم مِّن لِّينَةٍ أَوْ تَرَكْتُمُوهَا قَآئِمَةً عَلَىٰٓ أُصُولِهَا فَبِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ وَلِيُخْزِىَ ٱلْفَٰسِقِينَ

Why this meaning was chosen

All ten occurrences were inspected on one bounded page. Three أصل segments denote a tree's fixed base, the base of the Fire, and standing tree bases. Seven أصيل segments are temporal: singular forms bear the time feature and plural forms are paired with morning. That repeated temporal opposition contradicts a structural foundation, so the exact seven-segment set is recorded as a lexical collision.
