What the Bible Says..
On that same day the Lord told Moses, … This is because both of you broke faith with me in the presence of the Israelites at the waters of Meribah Kadesh in the Desert of Zin and because you did not uphold my holiness among the Israelites. (Deuteronomy 32:48-51).
So all the people took off their ear-rings and brought them to Aaron. He took what they handed him and made it into an idol cast in the shape of a calf, fashioning it with a tool. Then they said." These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt." (Exodus 32: 3,4).
What the Qur'an Says..
And mention in the Book Moses. Verily, he was chosen and he was a Messenger, a Prophet. And We called him from the right side of the mount, and made him draw near to Us for a talk with him. And We granted him his brother Aaron, a Prophet, out of Our Mercy. (Qur'an 19:51-53).
O you who believe! Be not like those (Jews) who annoyed Moses, but Allah cleared him of that which they alleged, and he was honorable before Allah. (Qur'an 33: 69).
And Aaron indeed had said to them beforehand: "O my people! You are being tested in this, and verily, your Lord is (Allah) the most Gracious, so follow me and obey my order." They said: "We will not stop worshipping it (the calf), until Moses returns to us." (Qur'an 20:90,91).
And We gave them the clear Scripture. And guided them to the Right Path. And We left for them (a goodly remembrance) among the later generations. Peace be upon Moses and Aaron. Verily, thus do We reward the good-doers. Verily, they were two of Our believing slaves. (Qur'an 37:117-122).
