An excerpt of statements made during a Friday prayer sermon

When during the Pharaoh’s tyrannical totalitarian rule, Moses’ mother gave birth to him, it was certain that the baby boy would be killed. The mother was looking for a solution. If the baby was a girl, she wouldn’t need to worry. A mother’s heart is filled with love for her baby, but she wonders what she can do. The divine inspiration was revealed to the mother: “We inspired Moses' mother saying, "Breastfeed your son. When you become scared of [losing] his life, throw him into the sea {the Quran; 28:7}" December 25, 1998.
