۞ وَلَقَدْ جَآءَكُم مُّوسَىٰ بِٱلْبَيِّنَـٰتِ ثُمَّ ٱتَّخَذْتُمُ ٱلْعِجْلَ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِۦ وَأَنتُمْ ظَـٰلِمُونَ ﴿92﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And indeed Mûsâ (Moses) came to you with clear proofs, yet you worshipped the calf after he left, and you were Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrongdoers).

Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim — Hafiz Abdus Salam Bin Muhammad Bhutvi
Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim is a 4-volume Quran commentary by Hafiz Abdus Salam bin Muhammad Bhutvi, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar and Sheikh ul-Hadith from Pakistan. Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf). It is distinguished by its complete avoidance of Israeliyyat (Judeo-Christian narratives) and unverified reports. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
(Ayah 92) ➊ This is, for another reason, a refutation of their claim to believe in the Torah: what treatment did you give to Musa (Moses) (peace be upon him), who came to you with clear signs of his prophethood and undeniable proofs, such as the staff, the shining hand, the flood, locusts, lice, frogs, blood, the splitting of the sea, manna and quails, the gushing of twelve springs from the rock, the shade of clouds, etc.? Then, after these signs came, you began to worship the calf—so was this faith in the Torah?
➋ { مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ:} This may refer to after Musa (peace be upon him) went to "Tur" (Mount Sinai), or after Musa (peace be upon him) brought the signs.
➋ { مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖ:} This may refer to after Musa (peace be upon him) went to "Tur" (Mount Sinai), or after Musa (peace be upon him) brought the signs.
