Conclusion
Indeed, the status of `Ubudiyyah (servitude) which is based
on piety is the value of human dignity and glory in the eyes of God. The
construction, consolidation, and improvement of this maqam is achieved through a
process of spiritual purification called Tazkiyah Al Nafs Through this
process, humans can increase their level of glory so that they can overcome the
glory of other creatures. Without it, the dignity of man can fall down and
become inferior to animals.
