Abstract
Within
the context of the Islamic religion, having Taqwa or the traits of
righteousness is imperative because Taqwa reflects the level of a Muslim’s
faith. Hence, the purpose of the present study was to identify the traits of
Takwa in surah Al-Baqara in the Holy Quran. The data for this study were
obtained from verses in surah Al-Baqara. Purposive sampling was used to select
the verses that contain the traits of Taqwa using an established tafseer
(Quranic interpretation) in the Qurainic field as a guideline in marking the
Taqwa traits in sampling the verses. Two experts in the field of Quranic
tafseer validated the traits of Taqwa extracted from each selected verse. The
data were analyzed using manifest and latent content analyses. The findings
reveal 10 categories of traits of Taqwa which are tawheed or monotheism, do good to others, performing solah, paying
of zakat, honouring rights, repentance, doing good deeds, righteous
communication, being grateful, being sincere, and recognition of the absoluteness
of Allah’s sovereignty. Sequential emphasis-based analysis was used to tabulate
the reiteration of each trait of Taqwa in order to find out the trait that is
most frequently emphasized in the form of reiteration. Among the Taqwa category
traits, the major emphasis is on tawheed
or believing the oneness of Allah. The findings help in enhancing the
understanding and the meta-framework of the traits of Taqwa, which is
particularly useful for non-scholarly Muslims in strengthening their Islamic
faith in accordance to what is commanded in the Holy Quran.
