And assuredly Harun had said unto them afore: O my people! ye are only being tempted thereby; and verily your Lord is the Compassionate; so follow me and obey my command. 90 They said, "We will never cease being devoted to the calf until Moses returns to us." 91 He (Moses) said to Aaron: 'When you saw them in error, what prevented you, 92 "That you followed me not (according to my advice to you)? Have you then disobeyed my order?" 93 Harun said: O my mother's son! hold me not by my beard nor by my head, verily I feared that thou wouldst say, thou hast caused a division among the Children of Israel and hast not guarded my word. 94 Said [Moses]: "What, then, didst thou have in view, O Samaritan?" 95 He answered: "I have gained insight into something which they were unable to see: and so I took hold of a handful of the Apostle's teachings and cast it away: for thus has my mind prompted me [to act]." 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 Your Lord is the One who is the only God and He has the knowledge of all things. 98 (O Muhammad), thus do We recount to you the events of the past, and We have bestowed upon you from Ourself an admonition. 99 If any do turn away therefrom, verily they will bear a burden on the Day of judgment; 100 they will abide in this [state,] and grievous for them will be the weight [of that burden] on the Day of Resurrection 101 The Day when the Horn shall be blown. On that Day, We shall assemble all the sinners with blued eyes, 102 They will murmur among themselves, "You remained not but ten [days in the world]." 103 We know well what they will say when the most upright among them will say: "You did not tarry more than a day." 104
