Question:
What is the definition of taqwa?

Answer:
Taqwa is a comprehensive term that encompasses all good. It encompasses all good and all acts of obedience. The Salaf (the earliest generations) defined it by saying: Taqwa of Allah is that you act in obedience to Allah in the light of Allah, hoping for the reward of Allah. And that you leave the disobedience of Allah in the light of Allah, fearing the punishment of Allah.
