Salam aleikum, to all my Muslim brothers and sisters out there, someone ask me What’s the meaning of Taqwa ?, but I couldn’t give him answer straight to his question, I went to meet imam of nearest mosque to know the mean, so this are the meaning of Taqwa.
Taqwa is not just about looking islamic…
Taqwa is not about sporting a beard or wearing a Hijab…
Taqwa is not appearance
BUT
*Taqwa* is when you miss a single prayer, you feel uneasy the whole day…
*Taqwa* is when you speak a lie , your instinct feels bad..
*Taqwa* is the guilt that follows when u hurt someone knowingly or unknowingly.
*Taqwa* is the shame and regret that follows a sin you did knowing fully well about it’s stand in the sight of Allah,
*Taqwa* is when you cannot sleep the whole night after disobeying or disrespecting your parents
*Taqwa* is to cry in the depths of night fearing none but the one above the Arsh.
*Taqwa* is the fear that refrains us from sinning even when we are alone and nobody is looking…
*Taqwa* is the guts and the will to please Allah, even when the whole world is hell bent on displeasing Him…
*Taqwa* is to wear that beard and Hijab for the sole reason of pleasing Our Creator and to keep it as per sunnah….
*Taqwa* is to stay happy and smiling even after knowing this world is a prison for believers…
*Taqwa* is the good manners and character that loving and fearing Allah brings in us…
*Taqwa* is the struggle to better yourself according to Islam with each passing day…
*Taqwa* is not only aboutrising in deen, it is more about falling but again rising up and never letting go…
*Taqwa* IS ALL ABOUT WHAT LIES IN THE HEART.
_And if this heart is filled with proper *Taqwa*, then actions automatically follow…
And the sweetness of these actions is so much better..
NB: You are not forced to share.
But as Allah Subhanahu Taala says:
Remind, for reminder benefits the believers ✨
