فَأَعْرِضْ عَنْهُمْ وَٱنتَظِرْ إِنَّهُم مُّنتَظِرُونَ
So turn away from them and wait. Indeed, they are waiting.

Tafsir
Ibn Kathīr (abridged)
How the Disbelievers sought to hasten on the Punishment, and what happened to Them
Allah tells us how the disbelievers sought to hasten on the punishment, and to bring the wrath and vengeance of Allah upon themselves, because they thought this punishment would never happen, and because of their disbelief and stubbornness.
وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَى هَـذَا الْفَتْحُ
(They say: "When will this Fath be...") meaning, `when will you prevail over us, O Muhammad, since you claim that there will be a time when you will gain the upper hand over us and take your revenge on us, so when will that happen All we see of you and your companions is that you are hiding, afraid and humiliated.' Allah says:
قُلْ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ
(Say: "On the Day of Al-Fath...") meaning, `when the wrath and punishment of Allah befall you, in this world and the next,'
