1. THE FEAR FOR ALLAH
Almighty ALLAH commands in the Glorious,
“O You Who Believe! Fear ALLAH”
In other words, instill the fear of ALLAH in your hearts and
be obedient to HIM. The
Holy Prophet Muhammad said, “When a servant
trembles in the fear of ALLAH, then his sins fall off his
body like the leaves fall off a tree when it is shaken.” .
When Hazrat Umar-e-Farouk would listen to verses of
the Holy Quran, then he would become unconscious in the
fear of ALLAH.
Once, he took a blade of grass in his hand and said,
“How I wish I were a blade of grass, something that is
not worthy anything. How I wish that my mother had not
given birth to me.”

2. He would cry so intensely in the fear of ALLAH, that the
flow of tears caused two scars to be formed on his face.
(Mukashafatul Quloob - Imam Al Ghazzali radi Allahu
anhu)
We should try to instil in our hearts the true fear for the
Almighty ALLAH. If a person truly fears ALLAH, then only
will he be able to be obedient to ALLAH. Without the fear
of ALLAH, our hearts will become a sanctuary for shaitaan.
The time will come, when every one of us must stand
before ALLAH, with our good and bad deeds, so FEAR
ALLAH! FEAR ALLAH!
