Yet Aaron had aforetime said to them, 'My people, you have been tempted by this thing, no more; surety your Lord is the All-merciful; therefore follow me, and obey my commandment!' 90 [But] they answered: "By no means shall we cease to worship it until Moses comes back to us!" 91 [Moses] said, "O Aaron, what prevented you, when you saw them going astray, 92 Did you disobey my orders?" 93 Aaron replied, "Son of my mother, do not seize me by my beard or head. I was afraid that you might consider me responsible for causing discord among the children of Israel and would not pay attention to my words." 94 (Moses) said: "What then is thy case, O Samiri?" 95 He said: "I saw what they did not see. I picked up a handful of dust from the messenger's tracks and threw it in, for the idea seemed attractive to me." 96 Said [Moses]; "Begone, then! And behold, it shall be thy lot to say throughout [thy] life, 'Touch me not! But, verily, [in the life to come] thou shalt be faced with a destiny from which there will be no escape! And [now] look at this deity of thine to whose worship thou hast become so devoted: we shall most certainly burn it, and then scatter [whatever remains of] it far and wide over the sea! 97 “Your God is only Allah – other than for Whom there is no worship; His knowledge encompasses all things.” 98 Thus We relate to you the history of past events, and We have given you a reminder [the Quran] from Us. 99 Whoso turneth away from it, he verily will bear a burden on the Day of Resurrection, 100 [Abiding] eternally therein, and evil it is for them on the Day of Resurrection as a load - 101 The Day the Horn will be blown. And We will gather the criminals, that Day, blue-eyed. 102 whispering one to another, 'You have tarried only ten nights.' 103 We know very well what they will say, when the justest of them in the way will say, 'You have tarried only a day.' 104
