“Taqwa” is an Arabic term that is difficult to translate into any English word. We may translate it to terms like piety, righteousness, and Allah’s fear, among others. Those who engage in the spiritual discipline of taqwaa are referred to as Muttaqin. In the words of Ibn Abbas, taaqwa followers are “believers who avoid shirk with Allah and who work in His obedience.”
