بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
3إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ
Il lal lazeena aamanu wa 'amilus saali haati wa tawa saw bil haqqi wa tawa saw bis sabr
Except for those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience.
Al-'Asr (The Declining Day) is a Meccan surah of just 3 verses, one of the Quran's shortest. The great medieval scholar Al-Shafi'i reportedly said that this single surah would suffice for human guidance, as it declares that all humanity is in loss except those who believe, do righteous deeds, and counsel each other to truth and patience.
