وَلَقَدۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ هَٰرُونُ مِن قَبۡلُ يَٰقَوۡمِ إِنَّمَا فُتِنتُم بِهِۦۖ وَإِنَّ رَبَّكُمُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ فَٱتَّبِعُونِي وَأَطِيعُوٓاْ أَمۡرِي

Transliteration:( Wa laqad qaala lahum Haaroonu min qablu yaa qawmi innamaa futintum bihee wa inna Rabbakumur Rahmaanu fattabi'oonee wa atee'ooo amree )

90. And indeed Harun had told them from before that, 'O my people! You have fallen on temptation on account of it, and indeed, your Lord is the Most-Affectionate [127], therefore follow me and obey my command' [128] (Kanzul Imaan Translation)

(90) And Aaron had already told them before [the return of Moses], "O my people, you are only being tested by it, and indeed, your Lord is the Most Merciful, so follow me and obey my order." (Saheen International Translation)

Surah Ta-Ha Ayat 90 Tafsir (Commentry)



  • Tafseer-e-Naeemi (Ahmad Yaar Khan)
  • Ibn Kathir
  • Ala-Madudi
  • Shaheen International

127. By stating Rahman (Most Affectionate) he has revealed that if you, too, would repent, He would accept it because He is Most Affectionate. 

128. This tells us that the obedience and loyalty to the Prophet is absolutely necessary for receiving guidance. By opposing the Prophet, Tauheed will not prove beneficial. The  Rafzis claim that Hazrat Alli (May Allah be pleased with him), after the Holy Prophet ﷺ was like Hazrat Harun (On whom be peace) after Hazrat Musa (On whom be peace). Then, they also say that Hazrat Alli (On whom be peace) put up a show of piety to swear allegiance to the first Caliphs, though this was not done by Hazrat Harun (On whom be peace), as he did not join the polytheists. Thus, according to the Rafzis, Hazrat Alli is not like Hazrat Harun (On whom be peace). Hazrat Alli (On whom be peace) at that point in time did not say: "Follow me and be obedient to my command".

 

Ibn-Kathir

90. And Harun indeed had said to them beforehand: “O my people! You are being tried in this, and verily, your Lord is (Allah) the Most Gracious, so follow me and obey my order.” 91. They said: “We will not stop worshipping it, until Musa returns to us.”


Harun prohibits them from worship of Calf and the Persistence of the Children of Israel in doing so

Allah, the Exalted, informs of Harun’s attempt to prohibit them from worshipping the calf and his telling them that this was only a test for them. He told them that their Lord was the Most Beneficent, Who created everything and decreed for everything its just measure. He is the Owner of the Mighty Throne, the One Who does whatever He wants.

﴿فَاتَّبِعُونِى وَأَطِيعُواْ أَمْرِى﴾

(so follow me and obey my order.) Meaning, “Follow me in that which I am commanding you with and leave that which I forbid you from.”

﴿قَالُواْ لَن نَّبْرَحَ عَلَيْهِ عَـكِفِينَ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ إِلَيْنَا مُوسَى ﴾

(They said: “We will not stop worshipping it, until Musa returns to us.”) meaning, “We will not cease in our worship of this calf until we hear what Musa has to say about it.” So they opposed Harun in this matter and they fought against him, nearly killing him.

(20:90) Certainly Aaron had said to them even before (the return of Moses): “My people, you were fallen into error because of the calf. Surely your Lord is Most Compassionate; so follow me and obey my command.”

Ala-Maududi

(20:90) Certainly Aaron had said to them even before (the return of Moses): “My people, you were fallen into error because of the calf. Surely your Lord is Most Compassionate; so follow me and obey my command.”
