قُلْ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَكُونَ رَدِفَ لَكُم بَعْضُ ٱلَّذِى تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ Qur’an An-Naml (27:72)
Qul AAas a an yakoona radifa lakum baAA d u alla th ee tastaAAjiloon a
say thou: "It may well be that something of that which [in your ignorance] you so hastily demand68 has already drawn close unto you...."
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

I.e., the end of their own life, which must precede their resurrection.

Say: "It may be that a part of what you wish to hasten is near at hand."
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Say, 'O Prophet,' 'Perhaps some of what you seek to hasten is close at hand.'
  - Mustafa Khattab
Mustafa Khattab
Say: It may be that a part of that which ye would hasten on is close behind you.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall

Say: "It may be that some of the events which ye wish to hasten on may be (close) in your pursuit!" 3307
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The Unbelievers-or even men of half-hearted faith-may say, "Why worry over distant future events? Take the day as it comes!" But that is a fallacy. Judgment is certain, and it may be that this very hour may be the hour of doom for any given individual. This is the hour of repentance and amendment. For Allah wishes well to all mankind in spite of their ingratitude.
