Since every society needs to be built based on the principles and foundations of the school of thoughts it believes in, for its progress and advancement, the community of faith must also be built based on certain principles and foundations. Many verses of the Holy Qur'an have the mission of introducing the foundations of the community of faith; as in the third verse of Surah Asr, one of the fundamental principles of the community of faith i.e. advising on the right is introduced. The current study has been carried out with the aim of explaining the advice to the right and its role in the realization of the community of faith via a descriptive-analytical method. The findings of the study suggest that advising on the right is a public invitation to follow the right so that everyone knows the right and avoids falsehood. This sense of mutual responsibility will bring for society some gifts including the realization of social justice, the creation of unity and solidarity, the non-pervasiveness of the oppressors' sedition, victory over the enemies, avoiding losses and the preparation of the society for the reappearance of Imam Mahdi. Undoubtedly, each of these components will lead the society one step towards becoming a community of faith.

Due to the decline in resources and the increase of population and needs, productivity as an effective pivot in management and leadership of society has attracted the attention of the scientists in various fields. In this respect, Islam as the last of the revealed religions, which claims to have presented a perfect and inclusive planning for productivity – proper way of doing a sound job, i.e., a combination of efficiency (the output proportionate to the input) and efficacy (comparison of outcome with the purposes) – as required by the contemporary man, has from a cultural point of view and on the basis of a comprehensive system of productivity with an emphasis on human pivotal role on both individual and social levels, provided the Muslims with novel and exclusive tips through the verses of the Quran and the life story of the Infallible Imams (A.S.) so as they may in the first step deliberate on those tips and in the second, put the productivity doctrines into action. The productivity chapter of the Quran is reported in Ṣūrat al-‘Aṣr. Optimal use of one's lifespan as the sole investment of life; faith as a momentum and a source of motivation, which along with knowledge, devotion, and certainty causes unlimited increase of productivity in one' thoughts, conduct, and speech; the outcome of faith productivity manifesting in pious and sincere deeds, which is effective in the uplift of both individual and social productivity; and finally enjoining the truth and forbearance, which are two ingredients of individual and social productivity, are among the most important characteristics of the productive believers in the Holy Quran reported in this short Ṣūrat al-‘Aṣr.

The contemporary linguistic achievements have taken the literary interpretation of the Holy Quran into a new stage. At present the Halliday's systemic-functional theory has received attention by many linguists. This article aims at acquainting the interpreters and Quran researchers with the new linguistic methodology in relation to understanding religious texts. Based on this theory and with a linguistic method, the writer has interpreted Sūrat al-‘Aṣr and presented new points on the semantics of this sūra. These points include: man's love relation to God and other human beings; the reflection of the world of the speaker, the listener, and the reader; the calculated priority and delay of the words; the peaks and valleys of the cadence of the words; mysterious bond between the old and the new datum; utilizing various types of cohesion and continuous relation of concepts and meanings.
