And Aaron indeed had told them beforehand: O my people! Ye are but being seduced therewith, for lo! your Lord is the Beneficent, so follow me and obey my order. 90 They said: We will by no means cease to keep to its worship until Musa returns to us. 91 Musa said: O Harun! what prevented thee, when thou sawest them going astray. 92 From coming after me? Did you not disobey my command?" (And Moses pulled him by the hair). 93 "O son of my mother," (Aaron cried), do not pull me by my beard or my hair! I was really afraid you may say that I had created a rift among the children of Israel, and did not pay heed to your command." 94 Moses asked, "Samiri, what were your motives?" 95 He replied, "I had the skill (of carving) which they did not have. I followed some of the Messengers's (Moses) tradition, but I then ignored it. Thus, my soul prompted me (to carve a golden calf with an artificial hollow sound). 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 One, Allah. There is no god, except He, alone. His knowledge encompasses all things. 98 Thus do We relate to thee some stories of what happened before: for We have sent thee a Message from Our own Presence. 99 He who turns away from it will surely bear a heavy burden on the Day of Resurrection, 100 As abiders therein. And vile will it be for them on the Day of Judgment as a load! 101 The Day when the Horn shall be blown. On that Day, We shall assemble all the sinners with blued eyes, 102 Whispering to one another: "You have tarried but ten days." 103 We know best what they will say. The most perceptive of them will say, "You stayed only one day." 104
