Sura 37:64
Indeed, it is a tree issuing from the bottom of the Hellfire,
37:65 Its emerging fruit as if it was heads of the devil.
The Quran is filled with silly crap like this. Bizarre tall tales of Gog and Magog, Alexander the Great witnessing the sun setting in a mud puddle at the end of the world and more. Tiresome threats of hellfire, tales of comets chasing eavesdropping djinns from Allah's throne and more. Having read the miserable Quran from beginning to end, I have no belief whatsoever that this mess came from God via angel Gabriel. I have no more belief in the Quran than the Book of Mormon and for the same reason. Neither book is intellectually respectable.
