The Declining Day
العصر
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
وَٱلْعَصْرِ ١
By the declining day,
إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ لَفِى خُسْرٍ ٢
Lo! man is a state of loss,
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ وَتَوَاصَوْاْ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْاْ بِٱلصَّبْرِ ٣
Save those who believe and do good works, and exhort one another to truth and exhort one another to endurance.
