Certainly Aaron had said to them even before (the return of Moses): "My people, you were fallen into error because of the calf. Surely your Lord is Most 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 Moses said, 'What prevented thee, Aaron, when thou sawest them in error, 92 From following me? Then have you disobeyed my order?" 93 [Aaron] said, "O son of my mother, do not seize [me] by my beard or by my head. Indeed, I feared that you would say, 'You caused division among the Children of Israel, and you did not observe [or await] my word.' " 94 (Moses) said: And what hast thou to say, O 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 'Begone! Your lot in this life is to cry: "untouchable!' said he (Moses). 'An appointment awaits you that you cannot fail to keep. Look at your god which you clung to indeed we will burn it and scatter its ashes upon the sea' 97 Your only deity is God - He save whom there is no deity, [and who] embraces all things within His knowledge!" 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 All who shall turn away from it will, verily, bear a [heavy] 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 The Day the Horn will be blown. And We will gather the criminals, that Day, blue-eyed. 102 They will slowly talk to each other and say, "Our life on earth was as short as ten days". 103 We are Best Aware of what they utter when their best in conduct say: Ye have tarried but a day. 104
