Taqwaa has three levels:

Taqwaa has three levels

The first: Protecting the heart and limbs from sins and all forbidden matters.

The second: Protecting the heart and limbs form disliked matters [Makrooh].

The third: Protecting oneself from the fudool and what does not concern him.

The first gives the servant his life,

the second gives him health and strength

and the third enables him to gain happiness, contentment and light. - Ibn al-Qayyim al-Jawziyyah

  2. This hijrah requires an origin and a goal. A person migrates with his heart:

    · From loving other than Allah - loving Him;

    · From fearing and hoping and relying on other than Him - fearing and hoping and relying on Him;

    · From calling upon, asking, surrendering to, and humbling oneself before other than Him - calling upon, asking, surrendering to, and humbling oneself before Him.

    This is precisely the meaning of “fleeing unto Allah”
