A Muslimah's Thoughts

  Surah Al-'Asr is a reminder that, as time wears on as mentioned in the first ayah,  "By time" , mankind is and will continue to be deprived, as said in the second ayah  "indeed mankind is in loss " , having been distracted by the temporary world's adornments and hidden but huge catastrophes which spreads corruption in every aspect of life, everywhere in the world. We see deceptions and lies everywhere we look or listen, which successfully fools people, and ultimately leads them to a miserable life and a loss of this life and the next. Although, Allah (SWT) has said in the last ayah that, "except for those who have believed and done righteous deed and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience.",  these are the people who will not be deprived by any loss in this life or the Hereafter, those who please Ar-Rahman, the Most Merciful.                                ...

                   " The truth has come and falsehood has vanished; Falsehood is surely bound to vanish."                                                                              [Quran 17:81,Surah Al-Isra]                                                                           

                        "...And who is more astray than one who follows his desire without guidance                                                             from Allah? Indeed, Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people."                                                          [Quran, Al-Qasas, Ayah 50]
