Read Surah Taha

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

قَالُوْا لَنْ نَّبْرَحَ عَلَیْهِ عٰكِفِیْنَ حَتّٰی یَرْجِعَ اِلَیْنَا مُوْسٰی۝۹۱

They said "So long as Moses does not come back we are not going to give it up, and we will remain devoted to it."

قَالَ یٰهٰرُوْنُ مَا مَنَعَكَ اِذْ رَاَیْتَهُمْ ضَلُّوْۤاۙ۝۹۲

But (Moses) said: "O Aaron, when you saw that they had gone astray, what hindered you

اَلَّا تَتَّبِعَنِ ؕ اَفَعَصَیْتَ اَمْرِیْ۝۹۳

From coming after me? Did you not disobey my command?" (And Moses pulled him by the hair).

قَالَ یَبْنَؤُمَّ لَا تَاْخُذْ بِلِحْیَتِیْ وَ لَا بِرَاْسِیْ ۚ اِنِّیْ خَشِیْتُ اَنْ تَقُوْلَ فَرَّقْتَ بَیْنَ بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَ وَ لَمْ تَرْقُبْ قَوْلِیْ۝۹۴

"O son of my mother," (Aaron cried), do not pull me by my beard or my hair! I was really afraid you may say that I had created a rift among the children of Israel, and did not pay heed to your command."

قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكَ یٰسَامِرِیُّ۝۹۵

Moses asked: "O Sameri, what was the matter?"

قَالَ بَصُرْتُ بِمَا لَمْ یَبْصُرُوْا بِهٖ فَقَبَضْتُ قَبْضَةً مِّنْ اَثَرِ الرَّسُوْلِ فَنَبَذْتُهَا وَ كَذٰلِكَ سَوَّلَتْ لِیْ نَفْسِیْ۝۹۶

He said: "I saw what they did not see. I picked up a handful of dust from the messenger´s tracks and threw it in, for the idea seemed attractive to me."

قَالَ فَاذْهَبْ فَاِنَّ لَكَ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ اَنْ تَقُوْلَ لَا مِسَاسَ ۪ وَ اِنَّ لَكَ مَوْعِدًا لَّنْ تُخْلَفَهٗ ۚ وَ انْظُرْ اِلٰۤی اِلٰهِكَ الَّذِیْ ظَلْتَ عَلَیْهِ عَاكِفًا ؕ لَنُحَرِّقَنَّهٗ ثُمَّ لَنَنْسِفَنَّهٗ فِی الْیَمِّ نَسْفًا۝۹۷

(Moses) said: "Go hence! All your life you are (cursed) to say: ´Do not touch me; and a threat hangs over you which you will not be able to escape. Look at your god to whom you are so attached: We shall verily burn it, and disperse its ashes into the sea.

اِنَّمَاۤ اِلٰهُكُمُ اللّٰهُ الَّذِیْ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ ؕ وَسِعَ كُلَّ شَیْءٍ عِلْمًا۝۹۸

Your god is only God. There is no other god but He. His knowledge extends over everything."

كَذٰلِكَ نَقُصُّ عَلَیْكَ مِنْ اَنْۢبَآءِ مَا قَدْ سَبَقَ ۚ وَ قَدْ اٰتَیْنٰكَ مِنْ لَّدُنَّا ذِكْرًاۖۚ۝۹۹

Thus do We narrate some account to you of what has gone before, and We have truly given you a Reminder of Our own.

مَنْ اَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَاِنَّهٗ یَحْمِلُ یَوْمَ الْقِیٰمَةِ وِزْرًاۙ۝۱۰۰

Whoever turns away from it will surely carry a burden on the Day of Judgement,
