In Arabic, **الأنعام (al-anʿām)** refers to grazing livestock/cattle, not to human beings. For example, Quran.com labels *Sūrat al-Anʿām* (chapter 6) as **“The Cattle”**, reflecting the standard meaning of *al-anʿām*. By contrast, Edward William Lane’s *Arabic–English Lexicon* defines **الأَنَامُ (al-anām)** as “mankind” / “created beings.” So translating **“آية الله في الأنعام”** as “Sign of God among mankind” is incorrect: the phrase as written literally corresponds to “...in/among the livestock (al-anʿām),” while “...among mankind” would require **الأَنام** (al-anām) rather than **الأَنعام** (al-anʿām). This appears to be a confusion between two similar-looking Arabic words (الأنعام vs الأنام) that have different meanings.

The article states that “Ibn Mutahhar Al-Hilli” died in **1374**. This appears to refer to Jamāl al-Dīn Ḥasan ibn Yūsuf ibn ʿAlī ibn Muṭhahhar al-Ḥillī (commonly known as **al-ʿAllāma al-Ḥillī**), a major Twelver Shīʿī scholar. Authoritative reference works date his death to **December 18, 1325** (726 AH), not 1374. For example, Encyclopaedia Britannica’s biography entry for al-Ḥillī gives his death date as **1325**. Since 1374 is nearly 50 years later, the “died 1374” claim is incorrect.
