Developing fear for and becoming close to Allah Ta'ala

Q:

1. How do I develop fear of Allah?

2. How do I become close to Allah?

A:

1. Understand the greatness of Allah Ta`ala, His majesty, the favours that you enjoy, the bounties for which you have not paid and His might and the fact that Allah Ta`ala can terminate everything whenever He wishes.

2. Don't do anything that will amount to the displeasure of Allah Ta`ala.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
