قُلْ إِنْ أَدْرِىٓ أَقَرِيبٌ مَّا تُوعَدُونَ أَمْ يَجْعَلُ لَهُۥ رَبِّىٓ أَمَدًا
Qul in adree aqareebun m a tooAAadoona am yajAAalu lahu rabbee amad a n
Say: "I do not know whether that [doom] of which you were forewarned is near, or whether my Sustainer has set for it a distant term."
  - Mohammad Asad

Say, 'I do not know if what you are promised is near or my Lord has set a distant time for it.
  - Mustafa Khattab

  - Marmaduke Pickthall

  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The coming of Judgment is certain. But the exact time, relatively to our standards on this earth, no one can tell. Allah alone knows it. Even a Prophet of Allah, as such, does not know the Mysteries of the Unseen World, except in so far as they have been revealed to him by Allah's Revelation. Cf. vi. 50, and notes 867-68.
