[92] This means that there should never be a moment for any Muslim when he is heedless of the fear of Allah, because no one knows the time of death, and the right of fearing Allah is that all the commands He has given and all the prohibitions He has set should be fulfilled properly and on time. Now, it is evident that while being engaged in worldly affairs, it sometimes becomes difficult to observe such caution. Thus, when this verse was revealed, the Companions ؓ became very anxious and said, "Who can possibly be so cautious?" At that time, this verse of Surah Taghabun was revealed:
﴿فَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ﴾
That is, fear Allah as much as you are able.
