Aaron had said to them before: 'My nation, you have been tempted by it. Your Lord is the Merciful. Follow me and obey my order' 90 They said: We shall by no means cease to be its votaries till Moses return unto us. 91 Moses said to Aaron, "What prevented you, when you saw that they had gone astray, 92 “That you did not come after me? So did you disobey my order?” 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 asked, "Samiri, what were your motives?" 95 He said: I perceived what they perceive not, so I seized a handful from the footsteps of the messenger, and then threw it in. Thus my soul commended to 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 Your god is only Allah, except for whom there is no deity. He has encompassed all things in knowledge." 98 So We relate to thee stories of what has gone before, and We have given thee a remembrance from Us. 99 Whosoever has turned away from it shall bear a burden on the Day of Resurrection. 100 Abiding in this (state), and evil will it be for them to bear on the day of resurrection; 101 The Day when the Trumpet will be blown (the second blowing): that Day, We shall gather the Mujrimun (criminals, polytheists, sinners, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, etc.) Zurqa: (blue or blind eyed with black faces). 102 Whispering secretly among themselves, “You have not stayed on earth but for ten days.” 103 We are most knowing of what they say when the best of them in manner will say, "You remained not but one day." 104
