The love and the fear of Allah Ta‘ala are two such gifts that will bring alive the treasure of submission in our lives. With the absence of love and fear, a person may be tempted to object and to reject the command of Allah Ta‘ala and the sunnah of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam). He will be subjected to doubts and misgivings. Thus he will begin to question the deen of Allah Ta‘ala based on his own logic and reasoning. Often people question the deen of Allah Ta‘ala, thinking that they are very intelligent, whereas in reality they are revealing their ignorance and foolishness. Thus, it is the love and fear of Allah Ta‘ala that will clear all doubts, and will pave the pathway to complete submission to the beautiful deen of Allah Ta‘ala.
