Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (Then We returned him to the lowest of the low)

Then Allah the Exalted said: [Surat al-Tin: 5] This return mentioned by Allah (Mighty and Majestic) means that Allah the Exalted returns the human being to the lowest of the low in creation, as Allah the Exalted said: [Surat al-Nahl: 70] As a person’s age increases, he changes for the worse, not in physical strength, nor in physical form, nor in the freshness of the face, nor in anything else; he is returned to the lowest of the low.And if we say: The best creation encompasses even the fitrah (innate natural disposition) upon which Allah created the creation, and the worship that follows or is built upon this fitrah. It is an indication that some people, may Allah protect us from that, return to a state of being the lowest of the low after having been at the highest peak of faith and knowledge. The verse includes both meanings.
