Salam to All
It is highly publicized that human are special and we feel proud to see ourselves as the best of the creation (ashraful makhlukat). But the following verse makes me confused.
17:70
We have honoured the sons of Adam; provided them with transport on land and sea; given them for sustenance things good and pure; and conferred on them special favours, above a great part of our creation.
It says clearly that we, the human, are preferred above many other creatures, but not above all.
What do you think?
