[Musa] said, “O Harun, what prevented you, when you saw them going astray, from following me? Then have you disobeyed my order?” [Harun] 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 Israil, and you did not observe my word.'” [Musa] said, “And what is your case, O Sāmirī?” He said, “I saw what they did not see in it, so I took a handful [of dust] from the track of the messenger and threw it,and thus did my soul suggest me.” [Musa] said, “Then go. And indeed, for you in [this] life to say, ‘Do not touch.’ 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 scatter [the ashes] into the sea in particles.
