[ Divine piety has two parts in ruling over us ]

(Check the original text in Arabic ...)


FUTMAK.COM الفتوحات المكية: الصفحة 157 من الجزء Two

Divine piety is divided into two parts in ruling on us, that is, the matter is divided into two parts: one in which God has commanded us to fear Him as He should be feared, since we are believers, and another in which He has commanded us to fear Him to the extent of our ability. What is specified in this obligation is a characteristic that is specific to a group of sects, just as He has specified it in the right of fearing Him. And if the believers were mentioned previously, then the pronoun is repeated over them, but something like this is not called a statement or a specification, so it falls below the level of specification, and a different ruling occurs for that.
