Grammar Rules

Verb form X — seeking/requesting
وَيَسْتَعْجِلُونَكَ (And they ask you to hasten) uses form X (إِسْتَفْعَلَ) — it means seeking or asking for the action.
We translate it as "to seek [action]" or "to ask for [action]".
Conjunction وَ (and)
وَيَسْتَعْجِلُونَكَ (And they ask you to hasten) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.

Sahih International

And they urge you to hasten the punishment. But Allāh will never fail in His promise. And indeed, a day with your Lord is like a thousand years of those which you count.
