Aaron had already told them, "O my people! You are only being tested by this. Your Lord is the All Merciful, so follow me and obey my command." 90 They said, "We shall continue worshipping the calf until Moses comes back." 91 Then Moses asked Aaron, "What made you not follow me when you saw them in error? 92 from following me? Why did you disobey my command?" 93 Aaron replied, "Son of my mother, do not seize me by my beard or head. I was afraid that you might consider me responsible for causing discord among the children of Israel and would not pay attention to my words." 94 (Moses) said: And what hast thou to say, O Samiri? 95 He said: I saw (Jibreel) what they did not see, so I took a handful (of the dust) from the footsteps of the messenger, then I threw it in the casting; thus did my soul commend to me 96 Musa (Moses) said: "Then go away! And verily, your (punishment) in this life will be that you will say: "Touch me not (i.e. you will live alone exiled away from mankind); and verily (for a future torment), you have a promise that will not fail. And look at your ilah (god), to which you have been devoted. We will certainly burn it, and scatter its particles in the sea." 97 Your Allah is only Allah, there is no god but He; He comprehends all things in (His) knowledge. 98 Thus relate We unto thee (Muhammad) some tidings of that which happened of old, and We have given thee from Our presence a reminder. 99 Whoever turns away from it (this Quran i.e. does not believe in it, nor acts on its orders), verily, they will bear a heavy burden (of sins) on the Day of Resurrection, 100 they will abide in this [state,] and grievous for them will be the weight [of that burden] on the Day of Resurrection 101 on the Day when the trumpet is blown: for on that Day We will assemble all such as had been lost in sin, their eyes dimmed [by terror,] 102 Mutterin among themselves: ye tarried not save ten days. 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
