يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِۦ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنتُم مُّسْلِمُونَ
Y a ayyuh a alla th eena a manoo ittaqoo All a ha h aqqa tuq a tihi wal a tamootunna ill a waantum muslimoon a
O you who have attained to faith! Be conscious of God with all the consciousness that is due to Him, and do not allow death to overtake you ere you have surrendered yourselves unto Him.
  - Mohammad Asad
O believers! Fear Allah as He should be feared and die not but as true Muslims.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
O believers! Be mindful of Allah in the way He deserves,1 and do not die except in 'a state of full' submission 'to Him'.2
  - Mustafa Khattab

 Meaning, always be conscious of Him; obedient and grateful to Him.

 lit., except as Muslims.

O ye who believe! Observe your duty to Allah with right observance, and die not save as those who have surrendered (unto Him);
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
O ye who believe! fear Allah as He should be feared and die not except in a state of Islam. 427 428
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Fear is of many kinds: (1) the abject fear of the coward; (2) the fear of a child or an inexperienced person in the face of an unknown danger; (3) the fear of a reasonable man who wishes to avoid harm to himself or to people whom he wishes to protect; (4) the reverence which is akin to love, for it fears to do anything which is not pleasing to the object of love. The first is unworthy of man; the second is necessary for one immature; the third is a manly precaution against evil as long as it is unconquered; and the fourth is the seed-bed of righteousness. Those mature in faith cultivate the fourth: at earlier stages, the third or the second may be necessary; they are fear, but not the fear of Allah. The first is a feeling of which anyone should be ashamed.

Our whole being should be permeated with Islam: it is not a mere veneer or outward show.
