And undoubtedly Haroon had told them before it that, “O my people – you have needlessly fallen into trial because of this; and indeed your Lord is the Most Gracious, therefore follow me and obey my command.” 90 They replied: 'We will not stop; we will cling to it until Moses returns to us.' 91 Moses said to Aaron, "What prevented you, when you saw that they had gone astray, 92 so that thou didst not follow after me? Didst thou then disobey my commandment?' 93 He said: O son of my mother! Clutch not my beard nor my head! I feared lest thou shouldst say: Thou hast caused division among the Children of Israel, and hast not waited for my word. 94 Musa said: what was thy object, O Samiri? 95 He answered: "I have gained insight into something which they were unable to see: and so I took hold of a handful of the Apostle's teachings and cast it away: for thus has my mind prompted me [to act]." 96 He said: Begone then, surely for you it will be in this life to say, Touch (me) not; and surely there is a threat for you, which shall not be made to fail to you, and look at your god to whose worship you kept (so long); we will certainly burn it, then we will certainly scatter it a (wide) scattering in the sea. 97 Your God is only One, Allah. There is no god, except He, alone. His knowledge encompasses all things. 98 This is how We relate the former tidings to you (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him); and We have given you a Remembrance* from Ourselves. (*The Holy Qur’an.) 99 Whosoever turns away from it, upon the Day of Resurrection He shall bear a fardel, 100 which they shall bear forever. It will be a grievous burden for them on the Day of Judgement, 101 The Day whereon the trumpet will be blown into, and We shall gather the culprits on that Day blear-eyed, 102 Mutterin among themselves: ye tarried not save ten days. 103 We know best what they say, when the fairest of them in course would say: You tarried but a day. 104
