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 shall by no means cease to be its votaries till Moses return unto us. 91 Said Moosa, “O Haroon – what prevented you when you saw them going astray?” 92 So that you did not follow me?

Now look upon thy god of which thou hast remained a votary.
