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 continue worshipping the calf until Moses comes back." 91 He (Moses) said: O Aaron! What held thee back when thou didst see them gone astray, 92 So that you did not follow me? Did you then disobey my order? 93 Aaron said, "Son of my mother! Do not seize me by my beard nor by my head. I was afraid that you would say, 'You have caused dissension among the Children of Israel and did not pay heed to my words.'" 94 (Moses) said: "What then is thy case, O Samiri?" 95 He said: "I saw what they did not see. I picked up a handful of dust from the messenger's tracks and threw it in, for the idea seemed attractive to me." 96 Musa said: begone thou! verily it shall be thine in life to say no contact; and verily thine is an appointment which thou shalt by no means fail. And look at thy god to which thou hast been assiduous; we shall surely burn it, and we shall scatter it into the sea a wide scattering. 97 Your Allah is only Allah, than Whom there is no other Allah. He embraceth all things in His knowledge. 98 Thus We tell you, (Muhammad), the stories of the past and We have given you the Quran. 99 Whoever turns away from it will bear a heavy burden on the Day of Judgement, 100 And will live for ever under it. How evil the burden they will carry on the Day of Doom! 101 The Day the Horn will be blown. And We will gather the criminals, that Day, blue-eyed. 102 They will murmur among themselves, "You remained not but ten [days in the world]." 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
