Certainly Aaron had said to them even before (the return of Moses): "My people, you were fallen into error because of the calf. Surely your Lord is Most Compassionate; so 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 Musa said: O Harun! what prevented thee, when thou sawest them going astray. 92 Did you disobey my orders?" 93 He said: O son of my mother! seize me not by my beard nor by my head; surely I was afraid lest you should say: You have caused a division among the children of Israel and not waited for my word. 94 Moses said, "What was the matter with you, Samiri?" 95 He said, "I saw what they did not see, so I took a handful [of dust] from the track of the messenger and threw it, and thus did my soul entice me." 96 Said Moosa, “Therefore go away, for in this life your punishment is that you exclaim ‘Do not touch!’* And indeed for you is a time appointed, which you cannot break; and look at your deity, in front of which you remained squatting the whole day; we swear we will surely burn it and, smashing it into bits, discharge it into the river.” (* He was cursed with a disease.) 97 Your Allah is only Allah, than Whom there is no other Allah. He embraceth all things in His knowledge. 98 Thus We tell you, (Muhammad), the stories of the past and We have given you the Quran. 99 Whosoever has turned away from it shall bear a burden on the Day of Resurrection. 100 with which he will live forever. On the Day of Judgment it will be a terrible load for him to carry. 101 On the day when the Trumpet is blown and We shall assemble the guilty on that day, blue -eyed. 102 and they shall murmur to one another, "You stayed only ten days on the earth" -- 103 We know best what they say. The moderate ones among them will say, "You did not live on earth for more than a day." 104
