I have a stack of Sentinel 1 images and I want to display all of them one by one and want the label to be the date of corresponding image. I am trying a for loop for that but I am unable to visualize the results.

Use ee.Image.get() option to retrieve the specific property of interest (in your case it is system:time_start which corresponds to the date of acquisition.)
The new loop should look something like this:
for (var i=0; i <=2; i++)
{
var image = ee.Image(listOfImages.get(i));
var label = ee.Date(image.get("system:time_start")).format('YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss').getInfo();
Map.addLayer(image,vis_params2,label,true)
}
Explanation:
ee.Date() function converts the acquisition times from milliseconds to date-time object..format() option to convert the ee.Date object
to a string but you can use any other method too..getInfo() is important because Map.addLayer() is a client-side function. So the label property to be passed needs to be retrieved from server-side to client-side.
for loop runs on the client-side. Its arguments must be retrieved to the client-side first before running the loop. iff variable resides in the server-side. To retrieve it use .getInfo(). So use for (var i=0; i <=iff.getInfo()-1; i++). If you want to read more about server-side and client-side, checkout this link: developers.google.com/earth-engine/guides/client_server.
