||| VuHelp4U ||| The Cycle of a Believer's Life

Surah al-'Asr is a fascinating Surah because it sort of sets the blueprint and the cycle of a believer's life. Think about it:

"By Time.
Indeed, Mankind is in loss.
Except those who believe and do good deeds, and exhort one another to truth and exhort one another to patience." [al-'Asr]

A person's "lifetime" seems to follow a certain pattern: We are all in loss and in danger of losing our Hereafter - except for the believer. But when belief enters your heart, you naturally start doing deeds of righteousness. But then belief can't stay suppressed in your heart and so you advise others and enjoin goodness - most importantly, you stand up for the Truth. And the moment you stand up for the Truth in this world, is the moment you will need to gather all the patience you can to overcome the obstacles that will no doubt come your way. This is because men and women of truth are tested and they are often fought by those who are still in lingering in loss from amongst Mankind... Subhan'Allah.

It is no wonder that the likes of Imam al-Shafi'i used to say, "If nothing else but this (Surah Al-'Asr) were to be revealed, then it would have been enough for them as guidance and righteousness."
