Aaron had said to them before: 'My nation, you have been tempted by it. Your Lord is the Merciful. Follow me and obey my order' 90 [But] they answered: "By no means shall we cease to worship it until Moses comes back to us!" 91 [Musa (Moses)] said: "O Harun (Aaron)! What stopped you when you saw them going astray; 92 So that you did not follow me? Did you then disobey 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, 'And thou, Samaritan, what was thy business?' 95 He replied: 'I saw what they did not see and seized a handful of dust from the foot print of the messenger and so I cast it; this my soul prompted me to do' 96 Musa (Moses) said: "Then go away! And verily, your (punishment) in this life will be that you will say: "Touch me not (i.e. you will live alone exiled away from mankind); and verily (for a future torment), you have a promise that will not fail. And look at your ilah (god), to which you have been devoted. We will certainly burn it, and scatter its particles in the sea." 97 Your God is only One, Allah. There is no god, except He, alone. His knowledge encompasses all things. 98 So We relate to thee stories of what has gone before, and We have given thee a remembrance from Us. 99 All who shall turn away from it will, verily, bear a [heavy] burden on the Day of Resurrection: 100 Abiding under it - an evil burden for them on the Day of Resurrection, 101 The Day when the Trumpet will be sounded: that Day, We shall gather the sinful, blear-eyed (with terror). 102 They will slowly talk to each other and say, "Our life on earth was as short as ten days". 103 We know best what they say, when the fairest of them in course would say: You tarried but a day. 104
