How to Weep for The Fear of Allah

Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu by Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid Islam-QA.com You should note that the Muslim can accustom himself to weep for fear of Allaah, by doing the following: Making yourself feel fear of Allaah. This weeping is the fruit of beneficial knowledge, as al-Qurtubi says in his commentary on the verse (interpretation of the meaning): "And they fall down on their faces weeping." [al-Isra' 17:109] This is an eloquent description of them and praise for them.
