A man of faith and piety is always subject to the following fears:
the fear of God, lest by any disobedience there is any faltering in faith;
the fear of the angels lest they may record anything against you which may be a cause of remorse for you on the day of resurrection;
the fear of the Satan lest he may tempt you to any evil;
the fear of the angel of death, lest your life is taken before you have sought pardon for you sins;
the fear of the world, lest by its temptation it makes you oblivious of the next world; and
the fear of family members lest by your attachment to them you become oblivious to your duty to God.
faith,
fear
