And Harun (Aaron) indeed had said to them beforehand: "O my people! You are being tried in this, and verily, your Lord is (Allah) the Most 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 But (Moses) said: "O Aaron, when you saw that they had gone astray, what hindered you 92 "From following me? Didst thou then disobey my order?" 93 'Son of my mother,' Aaron said, 'take me not by the beard, or the head!

All your life you shall cry: 'Untouchable.' There awaits a term for your reckoning that you cannot fail to keep.
