Qur'anic verses - The newborn Moses:

The Egyptians midwives had orders to kill Israelite babes. Moses was saved from them, and his mother nursed the infant at her breast herself. But when the danger of discovery was imminent, she put him into a chest or basket, and floated him on the river Nile. It flowed by the King's palace, and the chest with the baby was picked up by the people of Pharaoh.
