"عن عليٍّ قَالَ: لَمَّا حَضَرَ أَجَلُ هَارُونَ أَوْحَى الله إِلَى مُوسَى أَنِ انْطَلِقْ أَنْتَ وَهَارُونُ وَابْنُ هَارُونَ إِلَى غارٍ فِى الجَبَلِ، فَإِنَّا قَابِضُو رُوحهُ، فَانْطَلَقَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ، وابنُ هَارُونَ، فَلَمَّا انْتَهَوْا إِلَى الغَارِ دَخَلُوا فَإِذَا سَرِيرٌ، فَاضْطجعً عَلَيْهِ مُوسَى، ثُمَّ قَامَ عَنْهُ، فَقَالَ: مَا أحْسَنَ هَذَا المَكَانَ يَا هَارُونُ، فَاضْطَّجعَ هَارُونُ فَقَبَضَ رُوحَهُ، فَرَجَعَ مُوسَى وَابْنُ هَارُونَ إِلَى بَنِى إِسْرَائِيلَ حَزينَيْن. فَقَالُوا لَهُ: أَيْنَ هَارُونُ؟ قَالَ: مَاتَ، قَالُوا: بَلْ قَتَلتَهُ. كنتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّا نُحِبُّهُ، فَقالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى: وَيْلَكُمْ أقْتُلُ أَخى؟ وَقَدْ سَأَلْتُهُ الله وَزِيرًا، وَلَوْ أنِّى أَرَدْتُ قَتْلَهُ أَكَانَ ابْنُهُ يَدَعُنى؟ قَالُوا لَهُ: بَلْ قَتَلتَهُ، حسدتناهُ، قَالَ: فَاخْتَارُوا سَبْعينَ رَجُلًا، فَانْطَلَقَ بِهمْ، فَمَرِضَ رَجُلاَن فِى الطَّرِيق فَخَطَّ عَلَيْهِمَا خَطًّا، فَانْطَلَقَ مُوسَى وَابْنُ هَارُونَ، وَبَنُو إِسْرَائيلَ حَتَّى انْتَهُوْا إِلَى هَارُونَ، (فَقَالَ) (): يَا هَارُونُ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ؟ قَالَ: لَمْ يَقْتُلنِى أحَدٌ، وَلَكِنِّى مِتُّ، قَالُوا ما تقضى يا موسى؟ ادع لنا ربك يجعلنا أنبياء قال: فَأخَذَتهُمُ الرَّجفَةُ فَصُعِقُوا وَصُعِقَ الرَّجُلاَنِ اللَّذَان خُلِّفُوا، وقَامَ مُوسَى يَدْعُو: {رَبِّ لَوْ شِئْتَ أَهْلَكْتَهُمْ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَإِيَّايَ أَتُهْلِكُنَا بِمَا فَعَلَ السُّفَهَاءُ مِنَّا} فَأحْيَاهُمُ الله فَرَجَعُوا إِلَى قَوْمِهِمْ أَنْبيَاءَ".

"From Ali, who said: When the term of Harun drew near, Allah revealed to Musa: Go, you and Harun and the son of Harun, to a cave in the mountain, for We will take his soul. So Musa, Harun, and the son of Harun set out. When they reached the cave, they entered, and there was a couch, and Musa lay down upon it, then rose from it and said: How beautiful this place is, O Harun! Harun lay down and his soul was taken. Musa and the son of Harun returned to the Children of Israel, grieving. They said to him: Where is Harun? He said: He died. They said: Rather you killed him. You knew that we love him. Musa said to them: Woe to you! Would I kill my brother, when I asked Allah to make him a minister for me? And if I had wanted to kill him, would his son have left me alone? They said to him: Rather you killed him; we envied him. He said: Then choose seventy men, and he set out with them. Two men fell ill on the way, so he drew a line around them. Musa, the son of Harun, and the Children of Israel went on until they reached Harun, and [Musa] said: O Harun, who killed you? He said: No one killed me, but I died. They said: What do you command, O Musa? Call upon your Lord to make us prophets. So the quake seized them and they swooned, and the two men who had been left behind also swooned. Musa stood calling: {My Lord, had You willed, You would have destroyed them before and me. Would You destroy us for what the foolish among us did?} (7:155). So Allah revived them, and they returned to their people as prophets."
