Al-Asr

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

By (the Token of) time (through the Ages), (1)
Verily Man is in loss, (2)
Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy. (3)

Dengan nama Allah, Yang Maha Pemurah, lagi Maha Mengasihani

Demi Masa! (1)
Sesungguhnya manusia itu dalam kerugian; (2)
Kecuali orang-orang yang beriman dan beramal soleh dan mereka pula berpesan-pesan dengan kebenaran serta berpesan-pesan dengan sabar. / (3)

I keep thinking today (alot - which made me - migrain). And one of the thought is this surah - Al Asr. Yes... its true.. we are basically wasting our time of doing nothing...

For more detail on the research of this surah, please visit ,

Its interesting to read how the only 3 line surah can have bigger interpretation...

In Islam, the time is very important. Our daily life affect by the time. For instance, our prayer time. Subuh, Zuhur, Asar, Maghrib and Isyak.

I went to a course recently, and the speaker told us about dimension of the human body. Basically we as a normal human being have 3 dimension. In some cases, a special individual may have 4, which is time. And with this ability, he can travel to any place he want in a shorter time. hmm.. very intersting... and I wish I have those ability.
