Aaron had already told them, "O my people! You are only being tested by this. Your Lord is the All Merciful, so follow me and obey my command." 90 They said: we shall by no means cease to be assiduous to it until there returneth to us Musa. 91 Moses said to Aaron, "What prevented you, when you saw that they had gone astray, 92 From following me? Then have you disobeyed my order?" 93 He [Harun (Aaron)] said: "O son of my mother! Seize (me) not by my beard, nor by my head! Verily, I feared lest you should say: 'You have caused a division among the Children of Israel, and you have not respected my word!' " 94 Moses said, "What was the matter with you, Samiri?" 95 He said: I saw (Jibreel) what they did not see, so I took a handful (of the dust) from the footsteps of the messenger, then I threw it in the casting; thus did my soul commend to me 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 Allah – other than for Whom there is no worship; His knowledge encompasses all things.” 98 And so We narrate to you the stories of the past, and We have given you a remembrance from Us. 99 Whoso turneth away from it, he verily will bear a burden on the Day of Resurrection, 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 On the day when the trumpet will be sounded We will raise the criminals from their graves and their eyes will be turned blue and blind. 102 In whispers will they speak to each other (saying): "You stayed not longer than ten (days)." 103 We know well what they will say. The most just among them in the matter will declare: 'You have stayed away but one day' 104
