And undoubtedly Haroon had told them before it that, “O my people – you have needlessly fallen into trial because of this; and indeed your Lord is the Most Gracious, therefore follow me and obey my command.” 90 They said, “We will continue to squat* before it, till Moosa returns to us.” (* Continue worshipping it.) 91 He (Moses) said: O Aaron! What held thee back when thou didst see them gone astray, 92 So that you did not follow me? Did you then disobey my order? 93 He said, “O son of my mother, do not clutch my beard nor the hair on my head; I feared that you may say, ‘You have caused a division among the Descendants of Israel and did not wait for my advice.’” 94 Moses said: "What, then, is your case, O Samiri?" 95 He said, "I perceived what they did not see. So I took a handful [of dust] from the footprint of the Messenger and threw it in [the calf]. That is what my inner self prompted me to do." 96 Musa said: begone thou! verily it shall be thine in life to say no contact; and verily thine is an appointment which thou shalt by no means fail. And look at thy god to which thou hast been assiduous; we shall surely burn it, and we shall scatter it into the sea a wide scattering. 97 Your God is none else than Allah, beside Whom there is no god. His knowledge embraces everything." 98 Thus We tell you, (Muhammad), the stories of the past and We have given you the Quran. 99 All who shall turn away from it will, verily, bear a [heavy] burden on the Day of Resurrection: 100 They will abide in this (state): and grievous will the burden be to them on that Day,- 101 The Day when the Trumpet will be sounded: that Day, We shall gather the sinful, blear-eyed (with terror). 102 They will murmur among themselves, "You remained not but ten [days in the world]." 103 We know well what they will say to one another: We also know that even the most cautious in his estimate will say: "You lived in the world no more than a day." 104
