The document discusses four ranks of taqwa (piety, righteousness). The first rank involves refraining from forbidden matters. The second rank involves shunning doubtful matters. The third rank involves refraining from lawful matters that could lead to unlawful acts. The fourth and highest rank involves only doing things that please Allah, exemplified by Abu Bakr vomiting milk to avoid anything unlawful. Higher ranks of taqwa correspond to higher degrees in the afterlife.

Editor's Notes
- Allah says : O you who believe ! Fear Allah ( by doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that he has forbidden) as He should be feared ( obey Him, thankful to Him and remember Him always) and die not except in a state of Islam Surah Al- i-Imran 3:102
