And Aaron had already told them before [the return of Moses], "O my people, you are only being tested by it, and indeed, your Lord is the Most Merciful, 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 (Moses) said: "O Aaron! what kept thee back, when thou sawest them going wrong, 92 from following me? Why did you disobey my command?" 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 said, “I witnessed what the people did not witness – I therefore took a handful from the tracks* of the angel, then threw it** – and this is what seemed pleasing to my soul.” (* The marks left behind by the mount of Angel Jibreel. ** Into the mouth of the calf.) 96 [Moses] said, "Then go. And indeed, it is [decreed] for you in [this] life to say, 'No contact.' And indeed, you have an appointment [in the Hereafter] you will not fail to keep. And look at your 'god' to which you remained devoted. We will surely burn it and blow it into the sea with a blast. 97 Your god is only God. There is no other god but He. His knowledge extends over everything." 98 Thus We relate to you (O Muhammad SAW) some information of what happened before. And indeed We have given you from Us a Reminder (this Quran). 99 If any do turn away therefrom, verily they will bear a burden on the Day of judgment; 100 Abiding in this (state), and evil will it be for them to bear on the day of resurrection; 101 The Day the Horn will be blown. And We will gather the criminals, that Day, blue-eyed. 102 and they shall murmur to one another, "You stayed only ten days on the earth" -- 103 We know very well what they will say, when the justest of them in the way will say, 'You have tarried only a day.' 104
