Taqwa, often translated as God-consciousness or piety, has several interpretations in Islamic thought:

  1. Fear of Allah: Taqwa involves a deep sense of fear or reverence that motivates a person to avoid actions that would displease Allah [1].
  2. Self-Restraint and Caution: It is seen as a barrier, where one actively practices self-restraint to avoid sins, thus protecting themselves from Allah’s displeasure .
  3. Duty and Alertness: Taqwa implies a state of continuous vigilance, where a person is always aware of their duties to Allah and acts responsibly with this awareness .
  4. Inner Piety and Faithfulness: It reflects the inner piety of an individual, indicating a high level of faith and righteousness in their personal and communal life .
