Asr Surah Interpretation

 

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِیم

وَالْعَصْرِ

إِنَّ الإنْسَانَ لَفِی خُسْرٍ

إِلا الَّذِینَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالصَّبْرِ

 By time

Indeed, mankind is in loss

 Except for those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience. 

 

Points

At the beginning of Islam, Muslims recited this surah when praying to God and separating from each other

In the Quran, God has sworn by all time periods: Fajr , Subh , Nahar, Zuha, Dawn, Lail and Asr

  It is narrated in a hadith from Imam Sadiq that the meaning of Asr is the era of the departure of Hazrat Mahdi

Some have taken the meaning of Asr as the era of the emergence of Islam, some have taken it in its literal meaning, pressure, because pressures are the cause of the elimination of negligence and human effort and initiative

Some have taken the essence of existence from Asr, i.e. the perfect human being, and some have known it during Asr prayer

Damage in property can be compensated, but damage in humanity is the highest damage

(Zomar V15) ان الخاسرین الذین خسروا انفسهم

Ordering others to the right may have bitter consequences, which must be done with patience and perseverance

Fakhr Razi says that man in this world is like an ice shopper whose capital at any moment, will disappear. He can and should sell it as soon as possible, otherwise he will have caused damage. (Tafsir Kabir)

Although commanding the truth and patience are part of righteous deeds, they are mentioned because of their separate importance. Just as patience and endurance are rights, but it has come separately because of the importance of patience.  

وتواصوا بالحق و تواصو بالصبر

In another verse, the Quran considers God's grace and mercy as a factor in avoiding harm

(Baqareh V64)

  And were it not for Allah’s grace on you and His mercy, you would have surely been among the losers

  فلو لا فضل الله علیکم و رحمته لکنتم من الخاسرین

 Therefore, faith and righteous deeds and advising on the truth are achieved under the shadow of God's grace and mercy, and man is not without the grace of God, he is not guided to attain faith and not to become righteous

world market

A brief look at the verses of the Quran brings us to the basic point that the world is a market

and all people offer their life, strength and talent in it, and selling every thing in this market is mandatory

Hazrat Ali says: a person's breathing is a step towards death. Therefore, human beings necessarily lose their life capital every moment, and we cannot prevent the loss of our life and energy, whether we want it or not

It's up to us. Therefore, what is important in this market is the customer's choice. People make a deal with God and put everything they have in accordance with sincerity and walk in His way and for His pleasure. These people leave the mortal life and trade the world with heaven and God's pleasure. These are the real winners because first of all, their buyer is God, who is the source of all existence. Secondly, he also buys small items, so he does good deeds. Thirdly, he buys expensive and his price is eternal paradise. Khaledin Fiha. Fourthly, if we seek to do good and bad deeds, but we do not succeed, He will reward us again  

  لیس للانسان الا ما سعی

(Najm V39)   this means if someone tried, although no action was taken, succeeds

Fifthly, it multiplies the reward and doubles (Ale-Emran V130)

 اضعافا مضاعفه

 according to the Quran, it rewards up to seven hundred times, and the reward of good deeds is like a seed from which seven ears of corn grow, and in every cluster should be a hundred  seeds. But those who sell their lives in this market to their own or others' whims and do not think about God's pleasure have caused heavy damage, which the Quran has such interpretations about them

They have done a bad business, (Baqara V90)

بئسما اشتروابه انفسهم

Their business is not profitable. (Baqara V16)

فما ربحت تجارتهم

they lost (Aaraf V53)

خسروا انفسهم

They revealed the loss. obviously (NesaV119)

(Drowned in loses. (Asr V2

لفی خسر

In the opinion of this group, a smart and clever person is someone who can do what he wants with any word and any way he wants whether he wants to make a prosperous life for himself and gain fame and popularity in the society to win a medal, otherwise they call him a loser, retarded and miserable. But in the Islamic culture, a smart person is one who takes into account his ego and does not abandon it, works for eternal life and every day is better than yesterday, does not ignore death and instead debauchery, greed and oppression will go to piety, contentment and justice.Imam Hadi said: "Al-Dunya is a market where a group benefited and a group lost. (Tohaf-al-oqul)

Messages

The era of human history is valuable and God has sworn to it.

والعصرLet's learn its lessons

Humans are in loss from all sides. لفی خسر

An absolute human being who is not in the training of prophets is suffering

ان الانسان لفی خسر

The only way to prevent damage is faith and action

امنوا وعملوا الصالحات

It is not enough to think about yourself. A believer thinks about the growth and excellence of others. rightfully so

وتواصو بالحق

 The order to be patient is as necessary as the order to the right is to be patient

و تواصو بالصبر

Faith precedes action just as self-improvement precedes community-building

امنوا و عملوا

Without faith and good deeds and ordering others to the truth and patience, human loss

Establishing the right requires perseverance, insisting on the right and insisting on patience Society will be reformed when all people participate in doing what is good and forbidding what is bad, both giving advice and accepting advice

Salvation from damage is when a person tries to do all the good deeds, even if he does not succeed in doing them.

الصالحات

Faith must be comprehensive, not partial. Faith in all parts of religion, not only some of them. Absolute faith has come to include all the holy things
