أَلّا تَتَّبِعَنِ ۖ أَفَعَصَيتَ أَمري
From following me? Then have you disobeyed my order?"
قالَ يَا ابنَ أُمَّ لا تَأخُذ بِلِحيَتي وَلا بِرَأسي ۖ إِنّي خَشيتُ أَن تَقولَ فَرَّقتَ بَينَ بَني إِسرائيلَ وَلَم تَرقُب قَولي
[Aaron] said, "O son of my mother, do not seize [me] by my beard or by my head. Indeed, I feared that you would say, 'You caused division among the Children of Israel, and you did not observe [or await] my word.' "
قالَ فَما خَطبُكَ يا سامِرِيُّ
[Moses] said, "And what is your case, O Samiri?"
قالَ بَصُرتُ بِما لَم يَبصُروا بِهِ فَقَبَضتُ قَبضَةً مِن أَثَرِ الرَّسولِ فَنَبَذتُها وَكَذٰلِكَ سَوَّلَت لي نَفسي
He said, "I saw what they did not see, so I took a handful [of dust] from the track of the messenger and threw it, and thus did my soul entice me."
قالَ فَاذهَب فَإِنَّ لَكَ فِي الحَياةِ أَن تَقولَ لا مِساسَ ۖ وَإِنَّ لَكَ مَوعِدًا لَن تُخلَفَهُ ۖ وَانظُر إِلىٰ إِلـٰهِكَ الَّذي ظَلتَ عَلَيهِ عاكِفًا ۖ لَنُحَرِّقَنَّهُ ثُمَّ لَنَنسِفَنَّهُ فِي اليَمِّ نَسفًا
[Moses] said, "Then go. And indeed, it is [decreed] for you in [this] life to say, 'No contact.' And indeed, you have an appointment [in the Hereafter] you will not fail to keep. And look at your 'god' to which you remained devoted. We will surely burn it and blow it into the sea with a blast.
إِنَّما إِلـٰهُكُمُ اللَّهُ الَّذي لا إِلـٰهَ إِلّا هُوَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُلَّ شَيءٍ عِلمًا
Your god is only Allah, except for whom there is no deity. He has encompassed all things in knowledge."
كَذٰلِكَ نَقُصُّ عَلَيكَ مِن أَنباءِ ما قَد سَبَقَ ۚ وَقَد آتَيناكَ مِن لَدُنّا ذِكرًا
Thus, [O Muhammad], We relate to you from the news of what has preceded. And We have certainly given you from Us the Qur'an.
مَن أَعرَضَ عَنهُ فَإِنَّهُ يَحمِلُ يَومَ القِيامَةِ وِزرًا
Whoever turns away from it - then indeed, he will bear on the Day of Resurrection a burden,
خالِدينَ فيهِ ۖ وَساءَ لَهُم يَومَ القِيامَةِ حِملًا
[Abiding] eternally therein, and evil it is for them on the Day of Resurrection as a load -
يَومَ يُنفَخُ فِي الصّورِ ۚ وَنَحشُرُ المُجرِمينَ يَومَئِذٍ زُرقًا
The Day the Horn will be blown. And We will gather the criminals, that Day, blue-eyed.
يَتَخافَتونَ بَينَهُم إِن لَبِثتُم إِلّا عَشرًا
They will murmur among themselves, "You remained not but ten [days in the world]."
