  • Feelings Of Worthlessness Vs Humility

    Posted by Javed on January 2, 2025 at 8:27 am

    In some mental disorders, a person feels himself worthless, Does this feeling have anything to do with humility or is this completely different. I mean to say is this what god wants to instill in us when he tells us to be humble. Or is it something different?

    Humility is not feeling of worthlessness in comparison to other humans, rather it is a feeling of worthlessness in front of God. The humility and servility which is engendered in a person as a result of comprehending the awe, grandeur and majesty of God is called khushu by the Quran. This is an internal feeling of a person which makes him submit himself before God and also produces in him the feelings of mercy and love for other human beings.

    It is always recommended to seek medical help when facing mental issues including this feeeling of worthlessness in comparison to other human beings.
