And Aaron indeed had told them beforehand: O my people! Ye are but being seduced therewith, for lo! your Lord is the Beneficent, so follow me and obey my order. 90 They said: "We will not stop worshipping it (i.e. the calf), until Musa (Moses) returns to us." 91 Said Moosa, “O Haroon – what prevented you when you saw them going astray?” 92 "That you followed me not (according to my advice to you)? Have you then disobeyed my order?" 93 "O son of my mother," (Aaron cried), do not pull me by my beard or my hair! I was really afraid you may say that I had created a rift among the children of Israel, and did not pay heed to your command." 94 Moses asked: "O Sameri, what was the matter?" 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 He said: Begone then, surely for you it will be in this life to say, Touch (me) not; and surely there is a threat for you, which shall not be made to fail to you, and look at your god to whose worship you kept (so long); we will certainly burn it, then we will certainly scatter it a (wide) scattering in the sea. 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 All who shall turn away from it will, verily, bear a [heavy] burden on the Day of Resurrection: 100 [Abiding] eternally therein, and evil it is for them on the Day of Resurrection as a load - 101 The Day whereon the trumpet will be blown into, and We shall gather the culprits on that Day blear-eyed, 102 and they shall murmur to one another, "You stayed only ten days on the earth" -- 103 We know best what they will say. The most perceptive of them will say, "You stayed only one day." 104
