And Aaron had already told them before [the return of Moses], "O my people, you are only being tested by it, and indeed, your Lord is the Most Merciful, so follow me and obey my order." 90 They said: We will by no means cease to keep to its worship until Musa returns to us. 91 (Moses) said: "O Aaron! what kept thee back, when thou sawest them going wrong, 92 "From following me? Didst thou then disobey my order?" 93 Aaron answered: "Son of my mother! Do not seize me with my beard, nor by (the hair of) my head. I feared that on returning you might say: 'You sowed discord among the Children of Israel, and did not pay heed to my words.'" 94 [Musa (Moses)] said: "And what is the matter with you. O Samiri? (i.e. why did you do so?)" 95 He replied, "I had the skill (of carving) which they did not have. I followed some of the Messengers's (Moses) tradition, but I then ignored it. Thus, my soul prompted me (to carve a golden calf with an artificial hollow sound). 96 [Moses] said, "Then go. And indeed, it is [decreed] for you in [this] life to say, 'No contact.' And indeed, you have an appointment [in the Hereafter] you will not fail to keep. And look at your 'god' to which you remained devoted. We will surely burn it and blow it into the sea with a blast. 97 Your Allah is only Allah, than Whom there is no other Allah. He embraceth all things in His knowledge. 98 Thus do We relate to you (some) of the news of what has gone before; and indeed We have given to you a Reminder from Ourselves. 99 Whoever disregards (the Quran) will be heavily burdened with sin on the Day of Judgment 100 and live in it for ever; how evil will that burden be for them on the Day of Resurrection. 101 On the day the Trumpet is blown; and We shall muster the sinners upon that day with eyes staring, 102 Murmuring among themselves: Ye have tarried but ten (days). 103 We know well what they will utter, whereas the wisest among them will say, “You have stayed just for a day.” 104
