Then it was said: If the believer truly is the doer of the obligations and the one who avoids the prohibitions, then He said: 'Are they the true believers?' And He only mentioned five things. And likewise, He said in another verse: 'Indeed, the believers are those who have believed in Allah and His Messenger, then do not doubt and strive with their wealth and themselves in the cause of Allah. They are the truthful.' And likewise His statement: 'And those who seek your permission are those who believe in Allah and His Messenger.' It was said regarding this, there are two answers: One of them is that what is mentioned entails what is omitted, for He mentioned the trembling of their hearts when Allah is mentioned, and the increase of their faith when His verses are recited, along with reliance on Him and establishing prayer in the commanded manner, internally and externally, and likewise the spending from wealth and benefits, so this implies the remaining, for the trembling of the heart at the mention of Allah implies fear of Him. Indeed, they interpreted 'Wajilat' as 'farqat' (to tremble), and in the recitation of Ibn Mas'ud: 'When Allah is mentioned, their hearts tremble.' And this is correct, for the tremble in language is fear. It is said: The redness of shame and the yellowness of fear, and from it is His saying the Exalted: 'And those who give what they have given and their hearts tremble that they are returning to their Lord.' Aisha said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Is he the man who commits adultery and steals and fears that he will be punished?' He said: 'No, O daughter of As-Siddiq! But he is the man who prays, fasts, and gives charity and fears that it will not be accepted from him.' And Al-Suddi said concerning His statement the Exalted: 'When Allah is mentioned, their hearts tremble, it is the man who intends to oppress or inclines to sin, then he withdraws from it.' This is like His saying the Exalted: 'And as for whoever fears the standing before his Lord and forbids his soul from desire, then indeed the Paradise is the abode.' And His statement: 'And for whoever fears the standing before his Lord, there are two gardens.' Mujahid and others of the interpreters said: 'It is the man who leaves the disobedience out of fear of Allah.' And if the trembling of the heart from His mention includes his fear of Him, then that calls its companion to do the commanded and leave the prohibited. Sahl Bin Abdullah said: 'There is no barrier between the servant and Allah.'
