And indeed, even before [the return of Moses] had Aaron said unto them: "O my people! You are but being tempted to evil by this [idol] - for, behold, your [only] Sustainer is the Most Gracious! Follow me, then, and obey my bidding!" 90 They said, "We shall continue worshipping the calf until Moses comes back." 91 Said Moosa, “O Haroon – what prevented you when you saw them going astray?” 92 “That you did not come after me? So did you disobey my order?” 93 Harun said: O my mother's son! hold me not by my beard nor by my head, verily I feared that thou wouldst say, thou hast caused a division among the Children of Israel and hast not guarded my word. 94 (Moses) said: And what hast thou to say, O Samiri? 95 He said, "I perceived what they did not see. So I took a handful [of dust] from the footprint of the Messenger and threw it in [the calf]. That is what my inner self prompted me to do." 96 Moses said, "Go away! Throughout your life you will not be able to let anyone touch you. This will be your punishment in this life. The time for your final punishment is inevitable. You will never be able to avoid it. Look at your god which you have been worshipping. We will burn it in the fire and scatter its ashes into the sea." 97 Your God is only the One God; there is no god, but He alone who in His knowledge embraces everything.' 98 Thus We recount unto thee some tidings of that which hath preceded; and surely We have vouchsafed unto thee from before Us an admonition. 99 Whosoever has turned away from it shall bear a burden on the Day of Resurrection. 100 with which he will live forever. On the Day of Judgment it will be a terrible load for him to carry. 101 On the day the Trumpet is blown; and We shall muster the sinners upon that day with eyes staring, 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
