Surat Ţāhā (Ta-Ha) - سورة طه

: They said: "We broke not the promise to you, of our own will, but we were made to carry the weight of the ornaments of the [Fir'aun's (Pharaoh)] people, then we cast them (into the fire), and that was what As-Samiri suggested."

: Then he took out (of the fire) for them a statue of a calf which seemed to low. They said: "This is your ilah (god), and the ilah (god) of Musa (Moses), but [Musa (Moses)] has forgotten (his god).'"

: Did they not see that it could not return them a word (for answer), and that it had no power either to harm them or to do them good?

: And Harun (Aaron) indeed had said to them beforehand: "O my people! You are being tried in this, and verily, your Lord is (Allah) the Most Beneficent, so follow me and obey my order."

: They said: "We will not stop worshipping it (i.e. the calf), until Musa (Moses) returns to us."

: [Musa (Moses)] said: "O Harun (Aaron)! What stopped you when you saw them going astray;

: "That you followed me not (according to my advice to you)? Have you then disobeyed my order?"
