al-Khawf Min Allah - You must fear Allah alone and must not fear anything besides Him nor fear the consequences of obeying and worshipping Allah exclusively. Allah says,

“…Those who convey the Message of Allah and fear Him, and fear none save Allah. And Sufficient is Allah as a Reckoner.” al-Qur’an, Surah al-Ahzaab, 33: 39

Allah says,


“Do not fear men but fear Me.” al-Qur’an, Surah al-Maa’idah, 5: 44

and,


“So from whencesoever you start forth, turn your face in the direction of the sacred Mosque; and wheresoever you are, Turn your face thither: that there be no ground of dispute against you among the people, except those of them that are bent on wickedness; so fear them not, but fear Me; and that I may complete My favours on you, and you may (consent to) be guided;” al-Qur’an, Surah al-Baqarah, 2: 150
