Question:
Also, this listener asks: What is the meaning of the phrase "Fear of Allah," or when one is told, "Fear Allah"? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
Taqwa (fear of Allah) is that you place a protection between yourself and what you fear, which protects you from it. Nothing protects from the punishment of Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) except obedience to Allah and obedience to His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). So, place a protection between yourself and the Fire by obeying Allah, holding fast to His Book and the Sunnah of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and acting in accordance with His obedience.
