Yet Aaron had aforetime said to them, 'My people, you have been tempted by this thing, no more; surety your Lord is the All-merciful; therefore follow me, and obey my commandment!' 90 They said: We will by no means cease to keep to its worship until Musa returns to us. 91 He (Moses) said to Aaron: 'When you saw them in error, what prevented you, 92 from following me? Why did you disobey my command?" 93 Answered [Aaron]: "O my mother's son! Seize me not by my beard, nor by my head! Behold, I was afraid lest [on thy return] thou say, 'Thou hast caused a split among the children of Israel, and hast paid no heed to my bidding!" 94 Moses said, 'And thou, Samaritan, what was thy business?' 95 He said, "I saw what they did not see, so I took a handful [of dust] from the track of the messenger and threw it, and thus did my soul entice me." 96 Moses said, "Begone! It shall be your lot to say throughout your life, "Do not touch me," and you will be faced with a fate from which there will be no escape. Now look at your deity to which you have become so devoted: we shall burn it up, and then scatter it into the sea. 97 But the god of you all is the One Allah: there is no god but He: all things He comprehends in His knowledge. 98 Thus, [O Muhammad], We relate to you from the news of what has preceded. And We have certainly given you from Us the Qur'an. 99 Whosoever turns away from it, upon the Day of Resurrection He shall bear a fardel, 100 therein abiding forever; how evil upon the Day of Resurrection that burden for them! 101 the Day when the trumpet shall be blown: We shall gather all the sinners on that Day. Their eyes will turn blue with terror 102 Mutterin among themselves: ye tarried not save ten days. 103 We are Best Aware of what they utter when their best in conduct say: Ye have tarried but a day. 104
