Allah will not be invisible to them. People asked Muadh who are the ones with taqwa. He replied: "Those who stay away from shirk and worshipping idols and then purify their Deen for Allah.' Ibn Masood commented about the verse: 'Fear Allah as He is supposed to be feared,'2 that it means to obey Him and not to disobey Him, to remember Him and not to forget Him and to thank Him and not to be ungrateful.' Abu Hurairah was asked about taqwa so he asked the questioner whether he had trodden a thorn-infested path. The man said he had. Abu Hurairah asked him how he walked on it. The man said: 'When I saw a thorn, I took evasive action, lest I was pricked by it.' Abu Hurairah answered him by saying: 'That is exactly what taqwa means (to take evasive action on seeing sin).' Ibn Mu'taz3 (the poet) rephrases this:'Leave sins big and small, that is taqwa.Be like the one walking on thorns, dreading what he sees. Don't underestimate the minute (small), for mountains are made of small stones.'Hasan Basri (rh) says: 'The ones who have taqwa protect themselves from what Allah has prohibited and act upon what He has mandated. Taqwa remains with them until they forsake many halal things fearing that they could be haram.Sufyan Thauri (rh) says: 'They have been called 'the fearing' because they fear what is not usually feared.' Talq ibn Habib (rh) says: "Taqwa is to obey Allah with the (divine) insight (noor) that He will reward and to refrain from disobedience with the insight and fear that He will punish.'2Surah Ale Imraan: 1023Qurtubi and Ibn Kathir both say that this was composed by Ibn Mu'taz,3
