Taqwa Fear <strong>of</strong> Allah ٟٝ ــــــ نزُا<br />

Fear <strong>of</strong> Allah, being careful, knowing your place in the<br />

cosmos. Its pro<strong>of</strong> is the experience <strong>of</strong> awe, <strong>of</strong> Allah, which<br />

inspires a person to be on guard against wrong action and eager<br />

for actions pleasing to Allah. Fearing Allah as He should be<br />

feared is one <strong>of</strong> the major signs <strong>of</strong> being a faithful Muslim.<br />

Piety and restraint (through Taqwa) in times <strong>of</strong> hardship are<br />

signs <strong>of</strong> having achieved the essence and spirit <strong>of</strong> Islam, and<br />

thus Allah's blessing. See Holy Qur'an, Aali 'Imran (3):102-<br />
