death and will be recompensed for
their deeds in this world with Paradise
or Hell, can be exceedingly unreliable,
aggressive, ruthless and self-inter-
ested, and prone to dangerous crimi-
nal behavior. For someone who has no
fear of God, there are no bounds. As
long as that person thinks that he can
somehow avoid being punished by
laws, he may commit all kinds of im-
morality and cause all kinds of disrup-

them and engage in much similar be-
havior.
Fear and love of God, on the
other hand, ensure that people live by
proper moral values, behaving in
ways that meet with His approval.
This allows a society to progress, and
also strengthens it. Otherwise, there
will be no end to conflict, war, ruth-
lessness and injustice.
God commands goodness, jus-
tice, honesty and order. In the Qur'an,
He reveals:
And to Madyan We sent their
brother Shu'ayb who said, "My peo-
ple, worship God! You have no
other deity than Him. A clear sign
has come to you from your Lord.
Give full measure and full weight.
