HOW CAN YOU WALK WITH PRIDE
WHILE FORGETTING THE BEGINNING
OF YOUR CREATION?
I wonder at him who is fond of his own image and walks with pride while forgetting the beginning of his creation.
His life starts with the small bite of bread, a couple of dates, a piece of meat and some milk that were consumed with a sip of water; afterwards is filtered through the liver and extracted from it are drops of semen that settle in the testicles, which later on are moved by the excitement of his lust to eject out of him and into the mother to remain for a while before the foetus is developed; coming out through the channel of urine as a child.
As for his end, he is thrown in dust to be eaten by worms and becomes ashes the wind blows!
