And [recall] when Moses said to his people, "Indeed, Allāh commands you to slaughter a cow." They said, "Do you take us in ridicule?" He said, "I seek refuge in Allāh from being among the ignorant."
Now why do you think that they think that Musa is making a joke, or doing a prank?
Musa never jokes about matters concerning Allah.
They said, "Call upon your Lord to make clear to us what it is." [Moses] said, "[Allāh] says, 'It is a cow which is neither old nor virgin, but median between that,' so do what you are commanded."
Musa then explained what type of cow the Banu Israel must sacrifice, now they ask what age, and they said not old nor virgin.
Then they asked what colour, and Musa said that Allah said that it was a yellow cow.
And then they said Allah will guide us to the right cow.
Then a cow that has not done any work in its life, or has not tilled no fields or
Now, strangely enough, any cow would suffice, so Allah kept getting more specific on what kind of cow.
This was then to remind them one time that one man was killed, and no one knew who the killer was, then Allah revealed the killer, by the slaughtered cow.
Take the hide of the cow and hits the dead body of the murderer to bring the murderer back to life, and he tells who murdered him.
The moral of this story is that you should not mocking people for our ignorance, foolishness and lack of intelligence, as Mosees aid: "I seek refuge in Allah from being among the ignorant".
