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 They replied: 'We will not stop; we will cling to it until Moses returns to us.' 91 But (Moses) said: "O Aaron, when you saw that they had gone astray, what hindered you 92 "That you followed me not (according to my advice to you)? Have you then disobeyed my order?" 93 Aaron replied, "Son of my mother, do not seize me by my beard or head. I was afraid that you might consider me responsible for causing discord among the children of Israel and would not pay attention to my words." 94 'You, Samaritan' said he (Moses), 'what was your business' 95 He answered: "I saw what the people did not see. So I took a handful of dust from the trail of the Messenger, and I flung it (into the fire). Thus did my mind prompt me." 96 (Moses) said: Then go! and lo! in this life it is for thee to say: Touch me not! and lo! there is for thee a tryst thou canst not break. Now look upon thy god of which thou hast remained a votary. Verily we will burn it and will scatter its dust over the sea. 97 Your only deity is God, there is no deity but Him. 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 Whosoever turns away from it, upon the Day of Resurrection He shall bear a fardel, 100 which they shall bear forever. It will be a grievous burden for them on the Day of Judgement, 101 The Day whereon the trumpet will be blown into, and We shall gather the culprits on that Day blear-eyed, 102 whispering one to another, 'You have tarried only ten nights.' 103 We know well what they will say to one another: We also know that even the most cautious in his estimate will say: "You lived in the world no more than a day." 104
