Abu Bakr on Mans Lowly Origin.

Hadhrat Anas Radhiallahu narrates that sometimes when Hadhrat Abu Bakr RA would speak of mans creation during his khutbah, he would say man emerged twice from the place of najasat (impurity): Once from the fathers private organ (in the form of a sperm drop) and once from hs mothers private organ (at birth). This reminder of the reality of mans lowly origin would exercise a profound effect on the audience. Realising thier lowly origin, people would truly understand their insignificance.

In fact, they felt themselves to be physically and spiritually impure and contaminated.
