And indeed, even before [the return of Moses] had Aaron said unto them: "O my people! You are but being tempted to evil by this [idol] - for, behold, your [only] Sustainer is the Most Gracious! Follow me, then, and obey my bidding!" 90 They said, “We will continue to squat* before it, till Moosa returns to us.” (* Continue worshipping it.) 91 He (Moses) said: O Aaron!
