خلاصة:
The main issue of the present study lies in the fact that God does not need man`s worship, but why did He command him to humiliate Himself? The answer is that humiliation before God is the very dignity and transcendence of man. This claim has been studied by philosophical explanation and descriptive-analytical method and has been proved by quoting verses and hadiths. This study has been founded on the philosophical teaching of fully dependent existence of the caused in relation to its cause. While explaining this issue, it is explained that man is the act of God and of a fully dependent existence; And just as the existence of a relation is fully dependent on the existence of its corresponding independent cause, so the knowledge to the existence of the former is based on the knowledge of the latter. In this study, we come to the conclusion that man, by receiving the creational and legislative humiliations by God, becomes acquainted with the truth of his relationship, and consequently with the independent and needless nature of God. Since the realization of the present knowledge has no meaning without an existential unity of the knowing and the known, he finds a conscious existential connection with the independent existence of God and attains divine honor. Keywords Worship, Human Humiliation, Human Dignity, Linking Existence and Humiliation.

In this research, we arrive at the finding that by receiving God's ontological and legislative subordinations, man becomes acquainted with the reality of his own intermediary nature, and subsequently, with the independent and self-sufficient Essence of God. Since the realization of presence-based knowledge (al-ilm al-huduri) is meaningless without the existential unity of the knower and the known, he establishes a conscious existential connection with the independent being of God and attains divine honor.
(Jauhari, 1404: 4 / 1701; Dehkhoda, 1385: under the word Zillat) From the author's perspective in philosophical literature, this meaning can be referred to by the terms "possibility" and "ontological poverty," meaning that man, in his essence, without being compared to anyone or anything, is weak and poor, and by relying on himself, he can never attain existence.
If the conscious realization of necessity by another requires its true understanding through presence-based knowledge, and if the true understanding of the other and its connection to man necessitates his abasement and submissiveness—as will be explained—it follows that the only way for the conscious realization of human honor (the necessity of his existence) and the understanding thereof is through his abasement and submissiveness; that is, when man is able to understand his cause and his connection to it through the help of abasement and submissiveness, he can understand the meaning of necessity by another and attain honor.
