The Fear Of Allah

Question :

What is the meaning of the following verse?
"It is only those who have knowledge among His servants that fear Allah."

Answer:

What this noble verse means is that only the scholars completely fear Allah Almighty but scholars of what? This verse is speaking of those who have knowledge of Allah Almighty, of His Shari'ah, and of His verses, and not those who have technical or scientific knowledge. Only scholars of religion, who know Allah's verses, can fear Allah Almighty as He deserves to be feared and worship Him as He deserves to be worshipped, as opposed to the ignorant person who knows nothing about Allah Almighty, for such a person does not fear Him Almighty.

And the more a person has knowledge of Allah Almighty, the more will he fear Him Almighty and the more upright will he be in his application of his religion.
