And assuredly Harun had said unto them afore: O my people! ye are only being tempted thereby; and verily your Lord is the Compassionate; so follow me and obey my command. 90 They said: We shall by no means cease to be its votaries till Moses return unto us. 91 But (Moses) said: "O Aaron, when you saw that they had gone astray, what hindered you 92 so that thou didst not follow after me? Didst thou then disobey my commandment?' 93 He said: O son of my mother! seize me not by my beard nor by my head; surely I was afraid lest you should say: You have caused a division among the children of Israel and not waited for my word. 94 (Moses) said: "What then is thy case, O Samiri?" 95 He replied: "I saw what they saw not: so I took a handful (of dust) from the footprint of the Messenger, and threw it (into the calf): thus did my soul suggest to me." 96 Moses said: "Be gone, then. All your life you shall cry: 'Untouchable.' There awaits a term for your reckoning that you cannot fail to keep. Now look at your god that you devotedly adored: We shall burn it and scatter its remains in the sea. 97 Your Ilah (God) is only Allah, the One (La ilaha illa Huwa) (none has the right to be worshipped but He). He has full knowledge of all things. 98 Thus do We narrate some account to you of what has gone before, and We have truly given you a Reminder of Our own. 99 If any do turn away therefrom, verily they will bear a burden on the Day of judgment; 100 They will abide in that (state in the Fire of Hell), and evil indeed will it be that load for them on the Day of Resurrection; 101 the Day when the Trumpet shall be sounded and We shall muster the sinners, their eyes turned blue with terror. 102 and they shall murmur to one another, "You stayed only ten days on the earth" -- 103 We know well what they will say when the most upright among them will say: "You did not tarry more than a day." 104
