Mar 7, 2016 at 15:52 comment added Atata @Noor The explanation of the concept is very nice, as well as providing references from the Qur'an. But I was just wondering why it was named Taqiyyah since the closest word I could think of that is mentioned in the Qur'an (تقياً) means someone who is fearing of Allah (SWT) (The word was mentioned 3 times in Surat Maryam, verses 13,18, and 63)

Mar 4, 2016 at 10:52 comment added Noor danger or harm means here: being subjected to persecution, torture, killing on account of your belief.
Mar 4, 2016 at 9:01 comment added Kilise +1 for the statement "The concept of taqiyyah means that a believer is allowed to hide his true belief when in danger." - now what might be added is what the definition of danger is (so people don't think they can hide whenever they feel they are in "danger"). good answer though.
