An awakened conscience requires an understanding of right and wrong, which is strengthened through the remembrance of God and adherence to Quranic teachings.
An awakened conscience refers to an understanding of right and wrong, and it significantly emphasizes moral and human values, as underscored in the Quran. One of the ways to awaken the conscience is by reflecting on the verses of the Quran and grasping their profound meanings. Surah Al-Anfal, verse 24, states, 'Indeed, the believers are those who, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts tremble.' This verse indicates that remembrance of Allah and contemplation of the Quran can keep one's conscience awakened. Furthermore, in Surah Al-Mu'minun, verse 60, Allah mentions, 'And those who do not associate anything with their Lord.' This illustrates that having pure faith and abstaining from sins are crucial factors in awakening the conscience. In addition to studying the Quran, acting upon its teachings is equally important. Strive to adhere to good morals and proper behavior in your daily life. For instance, Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 177 says, 'Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is in one who believes in Allah and the Last Day.' According to these verses, practicing kindness and good behavior can awaken and strengthen our conscience. By considering the profound meanings of the Quran and acting on them, we can have an awakened conscience and progress toward a better life.
Indeed, the believers are those who, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts tremble.
And those who do not associate anything with their Lord.
Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is in one who believes in Allah and the Last Day.
