[Pooya/Ali Commentary 80:17] The origin of man as an animal is lowly. Refer to the commentary of Anam: 2; Araf: 12; Kahf: 37; Hajj: 5; Rum: 20; Muminun : 12 to 16 and Fatir: 11. To provide him sustenance all the forces in nature have been made subservient to him. Everything in nature if properly used serves his life on the earth. Then Allah granted him intellect, perception and free will, and made available guidance through His books and His representatives, so that by using his power of judgement he can avoid evil and follow the right path. Though all these blessings and bounties have been provided by Allah's beneficence for the good of man, yet he goes astray from the right path and rejects Allah and His guidance. The tone of these verses indicate that this sure is an admonition to those who became Muslims without the proper understanding of the religion of Allah and its purpose.
