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 'We will not cease,' they said, 'to cleave to it, until Moses returns to us.') 91 He (Moses) said: O Aaron! What held thee back when thou didst see them gone astray, 92 from following me? Why did you disobey my command?" 93 Answered [Aaron]: "O my mother's son! Seize me not by my beard, nor by my head! Behold, I was afraid lest [on thy return] thou say, 'Thou hast caused a split among the children of Israel, and hast paid no heed to my bidding!" 94 'You, Samaritan' said he (Moses), 'what was your business' 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 (Moses) said: "Go hence! All your life you are (cursed) to say: 'Do not touch me; and a threat hangs over you which you will not be able to escape. Look at your god to whom you are so attached: We shall verily burn it, and disperse its ashes into the sea. 97 Your only deity is God, there is no deity but Him. His knowledge encompasses all things." 98 And so We narrate to you the stories of the past, and We have given you a remembrance from Us. 99 Whoever turns away from it will bear a heavy burden on the Day of Judgement, 100 As abiders therein. And vile will it be for them on the Day of Judgment as a load! 101 the Day when the trumpet shall be blown: We shall gather all the sinners on that Day. Their eyes will turn blue with terror 102 Mutterin among themselves: ye tarried not save ten days. 103 We know best what they will say, when their leader most eminent in conduct will say: "Ye tarried not longer than a day!" 104
