The meaning of Taqwa according to the Salaf

The famous student of Ibn 'Abbass, Mujaahid Ibn Jabr (d. 103 A.H.) defined Taqwa as, " It is that you obey Allâh, so that He is never disobeyed, you are conscious of Him, So that He is never forgotten, and that you thank Him, so that He is never disbelieved." The Taqwa of Allâh is the life of the heart; without it all actions are as if dead.
