3:117

مَثَلُ مَا يُنفِقُونَ فِى هَٰذِهِ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا كَمَثَلِ رِيحٍ فِيهَا صِرٌّ أَصَابَتْ حَرْثَ قَوْمٍ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فَأَهْلَكَتْهُ وَمَا ظَلَمَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَلَٰكِنْ أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ

Why this meaning was chosen

All six occurrences were inspected on one bounded page. Four form IV verbs explicitly continue in known wrongdoing or arrogant refusal. At 3:117 صِرّ is a force inside a crop-destroying wind, and at 51:29 صَرّة frames a woman's sudden face-striking spoken reaction; those exact noun contexts contradict chosen persistence and require separate collision branches.
