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 But they answered: "By no means shall we cease to worship it until Moses returns to us." 91 He (Moses) said: O Aaron! What held thee back when thou didst see them gone astray, 92 So that you did not follow me? Did you then disobey my order? 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 Said [Moses]: "What, then, didst thou have in view, O Samaritan?" 95 He replied: 'I saw what they did not see and seized a handful of dust from the foot print of the messenger and so I cast it; this my soul prompted me to do' 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 god is only God. There is no other god but He. His knowledge extends over everything." 98 And so We narrate to you the stories of the past, and We have given you a remembrance from Us. 99 If any do turn away therefrom, verily they will bear a burden on the Day of judgment; 100 They will remain in it forever – what an evil burden it will be for them 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 They will slowly talk to each other and say, "Our life on earth was as short as ten days". 103 We know best what they will say. The most perceptive of them will say, "You stayed only one day." 104
