95:5 This statement is a warning that when we do not take advantage of our capacity to establish a relationship with our Creator, we can be reduced to the lowest of the low. Without developing high moral values and without advancing spiritually, guided by Divine Revelation, we are like animals, or even worse. Rûmî says, “The angel is free because of his knowledge, the beast because of his ignorance. Between the two remains the son of man to struggle.”
