[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The example of a believer is like that of a plant that is affected by the wind at times and stands upright at other times. The example of a disbeliever is like that of a cedar tree that remains unaffected until it is cut down."  

الكبرى للنسائي:٧٤٣٧أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعْدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ ابْنٍ لِكَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مِثْلُ الْخَامَةِ مِنَ الزَّرْعِ تُفَيئُهَا الرِّيحِ مَرَّةً وَتُقِيمُهَا أُخْرَى وَمَثَلُ الْكَافِرِ مِثَلُ شَجَرَةٍ الْأُرْزِ لَا يُقِيمُهَا شَيْءٌ حَتَّى تَسْتَحْصِدَ»
