00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:08,740
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

2
00:00:08,740 --> 00:00:11,740
Fearing Allah in both private and public life.

3
00:00:11,740 --> 00:00:16,149
The fear of Allah, glorified be He, ought to be

4
00:00:16,149 --> 00:00:20,149
A barrier against forbidden acts in all circumstances.

5
00:00:20,149 --> 00:00:23,149
This applies when one is in the presence of others,

6
00:00:23,149 --> 00:00:27,149
Just as it applies in private, away from their sight.

7
00:00:27,149 --> 00:00:31,149
This station is higher than fearing Him only when others are present,

8
00:00:31,149 --> 00:00:35,149
Because it is a clearer indication of a person’s veneration and reverence for their Lord.

9
00:00:35,149 --> 00:00:39,149
Allah the Exalted has praised those who fear Him in the unseen,

10
00:00:39,149 --> 00:00:44,149
Saying: "Those who fear their Lord in the unseen."

11
00:00:44,149 --> 00:00:47,149
“Those who fear their Lord in secret and who dread the Hour (of doom).” (21:49)

12
00:00:47,149 --> 00:00:51,149
It was among the supplications of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him:

13
00:00:51,149 --> 00:00:55,149
"And I ask You for Your fear in the unseen and the manifest."

14
00:00:55,149 --> 00:00:59,149
Narrated by al-Nasa'i and authenticated by al-Albani.
