ভূমিকা

Abi Talib (as) that, “Do not consider yourself safe from the evil of one who does not consider himself as having any worth.”[^1] One of the important issues in life is that of the worth or value of people within the society as has been mentioned in the Divinely revealed teachings. In the material and spiritual world, everything has a value to it. There are things that are cheap and things that are valuable, and naturally, if something has little value then one would give it up easily.

However, something that is valuable would not be given up with ease! For example, a small child who has a very expensive jewel in his hand would use it as a toy as in his opinion, it has no value, and he would easily give this thing up when the time comes.

The valuable jewels that we have this world all have particular names and worths to them and it is possible that if a group of children were playing with one of them saw a person passing by, they would give it to him as in their estimation, it has no material value! The character of a person is the same - if he considers himself as having worth, then he would not sell himself so easily.

Therefore, everything in creation works for and is subservient to the human being, and this too shows the status of humanity!
