This Is My Faith - Al-fatlawi, Ali - الصفحة ٨٩ - Is It One of the Essence Qualities or Deed Qualities?
Hasan: All right! The Glorious Allah never breaks His promise to reward dutiful followers. He also has the right to refrain from punishing sinners; this is out of His mercifulness and generosity.
Anwar: So, dutiful followers cannot be punished, I understand!
Hasan: Yes, of course! This is if the followers fulfill their duties.
Anwar: I got a different question now. What are the conditions of obedience to the Almighty Allah?
Hasan: We are going to discuss this later when we talk about Religious Duty (Taklif). However, I’ll mention some important points in brief. ‘Conditions of obedience’ means that when an order comes from the Almighty Allah, mankind must obey. Also this obedience has to be only for the Almighty Allah and not be associated with anything or anyone else.
Anwar: Thanks. It is very obvious now.
Hasan: Thanks God. I’ll see you next time, Inshallah.
