English - Muhammad Taqi Usmani
And when you said, .Musa , we will no longer confine ourselves to a single food: So, pray for us to your Lord that He may bring forth for us of what the earth grows — of its vegetable, its cucumbers, its wheat, its lentils and its onions. He said, .Do you want to take what is inferior in exchange for what is better? Go down to a town, and you will have what you ask for. Then they were stamped with disgrace and misery, and they returned with wrath from Allah. That was because they used to deny the signs of Allah, and would slay the prophets unjustly. That was because they disobeyed and transgressed all limits. ﴾61﴿ Surely, those who believed in Allah, and those who are Jews, and Christians, and Sabians, __whosoever believes in Allah and in the Last Day, and does good deeds – all such people will have their reward with their Lord, and there will be no reason for them to fear, nor shall they grieve. ﴾62﴿ And when We took the pledge from you, and raised high above you the (Mount of) Tur: .Hold fast to what We have given to you, and remember what is in it, so that you may become God-fearing. ﴾63﴿ Then even after that, you turned away. So, had it not been for the grace of Allah upon you, and His mercy, you would have been among the losers. ﴾64﴿ Certainly you have knowledge of those among you who transgressed in (the matter of) the Sabbath. We said to them, .Become apes, abased. ﴾65﴿ Thus, We made it a deterrent for those around and (those who came) after them — and a lesson for the God-fearing. ﴾66﴿ When Musa said to his people, .Allah commands you to slaughter a cow., they said, .Are you making fun of us?. He said, .I seek refuge with Allah from being one of the ignorant. ﴾67﴿ They said, .Pray for us to your Lord that He makes it clear to us what sort (of cow) should she be. He said, .He says she should be a cow neither too old, nor too young - of some middle age in between. Now, do what you are being asked to do. ﴾68﴿ They said, .Pray for us to your Lord that He makes it clear to us of what colour it should be. He said: .He says that she should be a yellow cow, rich yellow in her colour that should please the onlookers. ﴾69﴿ They said, .Pray for us to your Lord that He makes it clear to us of what sort should she be, for this cow has made us confused and, if Allah wills, We shall certainly take the right course. ﴾70﴿
