Ye are but being seduced therewith, for lo! your Lord is the Beneficent, so follow me and obey my order. 90 They replied: 'We will not stop; we will cling to it until Moses returns to us.' 91 Then Moses asked Aaron, "What made you not follow me when you saw them in error? 92 "From following me?

Thus my soul commended to me. 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 Allah, except for whom there is no deity. He has encompassed all things in 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 Whosoever has turned away from it shall bear a burden on the Day of Resurrection. 100 Abiding under it - an evil burden for them on the Day of Resurrection, 101 on the Day when the trumpet is blown: for on that Day We will assemble all such as had been lost in sin, their eyes dimmed [by terror,] 102 In whispers will they consult each other: "Yet tarried not longer than ten (Days); 103 We know well what they will utter, whereas the wisest among them will say, “You have stayed just for a day.” 104
