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 had said: "We will not abandon this cult, but we will devote ourselves to it until Moses returns to us." 91 Said Moosa, “O Haroon – what prevented you when you saw them going astray?” 92 That thou followedst me not! Hast thou disobeyed my command? 93 Aaron said, "Son of my mother! Do not seize me by my beard nor by my head. I was afraid that you would say, 'You have caused dissension among the Children of Israel and did not pay heed to my words.'" 94 Moses said: "What, then, is your case, O Samiri?" 95 'I beheld what they beheld not,' he said, 'and I seized a handful of dust from the messenger's track, and cast it into the thing. So my soul prompted 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 Ilah (God) is only Allah, the One (La ilaha illa Huwa) (none has the right to be worshipped but He). He has full knowledge of all things. 98 Thus We tell you, (Muhammad), the stories of the past and We have given you the Quran. 99 Whosoever turnoth away therefrom - verily they shall bear on the Day of Judgment a burthen, 100 and live in it for ever; how evil will that burden be for them on the Day of Resurrection. 101 The Day when the Horn shall be blown. On that Day, We shall assemble all the sinners with blued eyes, 102 and they shall murmur to one another, "You stayed only ten days on the earth" -- 103 We know best what they say, when the fairest of them in course would say: You tarried but a day. 104
