وَالْعَصْرِ

Wa(a)lAAasr(i)

By the time.

(103:1)

إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَفِي خُسْرٍ 

Inna alinsana lafee khusr(in)

Verily man is in loss.

(103:2)

إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالصَّبْرِ 

Illa allatheena amanoo waAAamiloo a(l)ssalihati watawasaw bi(a)lhaqqi watawasaw bi(al)ssabr(i)

But not those who believe and work righteous deeds, and enjoin upon each other the truth and enjoin upon each other steadfastness.

(103:3)

 

In The Name of Allah-SWT the Most Gracious, The Most Merciful
SECRETS OF REVELATION:

By the era, which itself is witness that mankind indeed is at a loss. The wealth it yearns for is destined to be lost. Each passing moment marks a reduction in the term of life, with limbs and the organs becoming decrepit. Everything which he has at his disposal including his strength is being expended. Allah-SWT's numerous blessings are now on the course of depletion, one after the other, while death shall finally terminate all pleasures of life.

 

However, those who believed in and recognised Allah-SWT , and also offered their gratitude to Him-SWT , attained excellence in return. This is because they moulded their lives in accordance with His-SWT dictates and the System given by Him-SWT . And they had also exhorted others all their lives to the Truth while themselves conforming to it in the best possible manner.
