The Meaning of Taqwa
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q20: The questioner asks: What is meant by taqwa? And what are the causes for a Muslim to achieve taqwa in this life?
A20: Taqwa is a comprehensive term; it means that you place a shield between yourself and the anger of Allah and His Fire, protecting you from it. This is achieved by obeying Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, and obeying His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). This is taqwa, and it is called taqwa because it protects one from the punishment of Allah and the anger of Allah. This is done by performing the obligatory acts, avoiding the forbidden, obeying Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, and obeying His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
