Al-Asr
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Surat Al-Asr (Arabic: سورة العصر ) (The Declining Day, Eventide, The Epoch, Time) is the 103rd sura of the Qur'an. It contains 3 ayat, and is believed to be an early Meccan sura (although a few commentators consider it Madinan.) It is said to have sparked the conversion of Amr ibn al-As after he recited it to the self-proclaimed prophet Musaylimah and he responded with a "sura" about the hyrax which Amr ibn al-As rejected as absurd. Its text (in Shakir's translation, slightly edited for literalism) is:
