surah Muminun aya 100 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿لَعَلِّي أَعْمَلُ صَالِحًا فِيمَا تَرَكْتُ ۚ كَلَّا ۚ إِنَّهَا كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قَائِلُهَا ۖ وَمِن وَرَائِهِم بَرْزَخٌ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ﴾
[ المؤمنون: 100]
23:100 That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! It is only a word he is saying; and behind them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishPerhaps I will do good actions when I return to it.
Never.
The matter is not as you requested.
It is only a statement he is uttering.
If he were to return to the worldly life, he would not fulfil what he promised.
These people who have died will remain in a barrier between the world and the afterlife until the Day of Resurrection and rising.
Thus, they will not return from it to the world, to make up for what they lost and to correct what they spoiled.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
"So that I may do good in that which I have left behind!" No! It is but a word that he speaks, and behind them is Barzakh (a barrier) until the Day when they will be resurrected.

We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".
23:100 That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! translate in arabic
لعلي أعمل صالحا فيما تركت كلا إنها كلمة هو قائلها ومن ورائهم برزخ إلى يوم يبعثون
سورة: المؤمنون - آية: ( 100 ) - جزء: ( 18 ) - صفحة: ( 348 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
He says: If given the chance I may be able to do all I have neglected and left undone and imprint my deeds with wisdom and piety. Never. But this is a wish he expresses in words! Once the souls have been disembodied and crossed to the other world, it is then a one - way journey with no return. Behind them there is an impassable barrier barricading the passage back until the Day of Resurrection when people are then restored to life
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(23:100) which I have left: I hope I will now do righteous deeds. " *90 -By no means! *91 it is a mere saying that he is uttering: *92 for now there is a barrier between the dead (and the world which they have left) up to the Day *93 when they shall be raised up again.
That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! meaning
*90) It occurs at several places in the Qur'an that each of the criminals, after his death till his entry into Hell, and even after that, will plead again and again: "Lord, send me back to the world: I will no more disobey Thee: I will now do righteous deeds." See Al-An`am (VI):27, 28, Al-A`araf (VII): 53, Ibrahim (X 1 V): 44, 45, Ash-Shu`ara' (XXVI):102, AI-Fatir (XXXV): 37, Az-Zumar (XXXIX): 58, 59, AI-Mu'min (XL): 10-12, and Ash-Shura (XLII): 44 along with the relevant E.N.'s.
*91) That is, "He will never be sent back nor given another opportunity, for in that case the test and vial for which man is sent m this world becomes meaningless." For further explanation, see Al-Baqarah (II): 210 and E. N. 228 thereof, and,E.N.'s 6, 139, 140 of AI-An`am (VI) and E.N. 26 of Yunus (X).
*92) That is, "Now, when he has met his doom, he has nothing more to say than that he should be sent back to the world; so let him say what he likes; he will never be allowed to go back."
*93) "That is, "Now there is a `barrier' between them and the world, which will not allow them to go back to it. Therefore they shall remain in that state up to the Day of Resurrection. "
That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! meaning in Urdu
امید ہے کہ اب میں نیک عمل کروں گا" ہرگز نہیں، یہ بس ایک بات ہے جو وہ بک رہا ہے اب اِن سب (مرنے والوں) کے پیچھے ایک برزخ حائل ہے دوسری زندگی کے دن تک
