سورة طه
What! could they not see that it did not return to them a reply, and (that) it did not control any harm or benefit for them? And certainly Haroun had said to them before: O my people! you are only tried by it, and surely your Lord is the Beneficent Allah, therefore follow me and obey my order. They said: We will by no means cease to keep to its worship until Musa returns to us. (Musa) said: O Haroun! what prevented you, when you saw them going astray, So that you did not follow me? Did you then disobey my order? He said: O son of my mother! seize me not by my beard nor by my head; surely I was afraid lest you should say: You have caused a division among the children of Israel and not waited for my word. He said: What was then your object, O Samiri? He said: I saw (Jibreel) what they did not see, so I took a handful (of the dust) from the footsteps of the messenger, then I threw it in the casting; thus did my soul commend to me | ||
