Collected by Qurʾān
quran:43:66 –

Are they waiting except for the Hour to come upon them suddenly while they perceive not?  

Are they, that is, the Meccan disbelievers, awaiting anything, that is to say — they are ˹in fact˺ awaiting nothing — but that Hour should come upon them (an ta’tiyahum substitutes for al-sā‘ata, ‘the Hour’) suddenly, unexpectedly, while they are unaware?, of the time of its coming beforehand.
القرآن:٤٣:٦٦ –

هَلْ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَّا السَّاعَةَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَهُمْ بَغْتَةً وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ  

{هل ينظرون} أي كفار مكة، أي ما ينتظرون {إلا الساعة أن تأتيهم} بدل من الساعة {بغتةً} فجأة {وهم لا يشعرون} بوقت مجيئها قبله.
