14:26

وَمَثَلُ كَلِمَةٍ خَبِيثَةٍ كَشَجَرَةٍ خَبِيثَةٍ ٱجْتُثَّتْ مِن فَوْقِ ٱلْأَرْضِ مَا لَهَا مِن قَرَارٍ

Why this meaning was chosen

The sole target is a feminine singular form VIII passive perfect agreeing with the bad tree. The source phrase places its removal from above the earth, and the following clause says it has no stable position, jointly establishing complete uprooting.
