"Dhull" (humiliation) is a human characteristic resulting from an external factor in which a person is subjugated by someone else and thus submits and obeys him. "Dhull" is of two types: 1. Reprehensible "dhull": in which a man humiliates oneself to other than Allah showing disgrace, weakness, and humiliation. 2. Praiseworthy "dhull": in which man humbles oneself to Allah, may He be Glorified and Exalted. This, in fact, represents the highest level of dignity, honor, and success in this life and the Hereafter.
