Sixteenth: Fearing Allah, Exalted be He.
Fearing Allah, exalted be He, is a praised act, and it leads to a righteous end. Because he who fears will walk in the night in activity and enthusiasm will reach the position. Allah has praised the fearers and commended them. He considered fearing him as the manners of the angels who are the near (to Allah). His fear is not considered to be done except after doing the best to repent. Anyway, a slave should never be free of fearing Allah and thinking well of Him, as what is previously mentioned.
