HER FAITH KEPT HER FIRM

The mother of Moses, when the river bore him away, felt the loss of her son so acutely that it overcame her heart, and were it not for the fact that Allāh established faith in her heart and her sure knowledge that the promise of Allāh was true, she would surely have openly broadcast her calamity. However her faith kept her firm at the onset of calamity, consoled her, and strengthened her.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said in his great legacy [to Ibn 'Abbās],

"Know Allāh in times of ease, He will know you in times of hardship."

* Recorded by al-Tirmidhī [#2516] and Ahmad [1/293, 303, 307] and it is sahīh.
