About Surah Al-'Asr

Al-'Asr, “Time”, is only three verses long, yet Imam ash-Shafi'i said that if people reflected on this surah alone, it would suffice them. Swearing by time, it declares that all mankind is in loss.

The only exceptions are those who have four qualities: they believe, do righteous deeds, advise one another to truth, and advise one another to patience.
