Commentary

Walking in its sides: This is a metaphor for extreme humiliation and surpassing the limit. This is because the shoulders and their meeting point from the back are the softest part of the camel, and it is known that a rider does not step on it with his foot or lean on it. So, if it is made in humiliation to the extent that one walks in its sides, he has not left anything of it except that he has humiliated it. And it is said: its sides are its mountains. Al-Zajjaj said: Its meaning is that it has made it easy for you to walk in its mountains. If it is possible for you to walk in its mountains, then that is the utmost humiliation. And it is said: its sides. And the meaning is: And to Him is your resurrection, so it is your questioning about the gratitude for what He has bestowed upon you.
