وَقَالَتِ امْرَأَتُ فِرْعَوْنَ قُرَّتُ عَيْنٍ لِّي وَلَكَ لَا تَقْتُلُوهُ عَسَى أَن يَنفَعَنَا أَوْ نَتَّخِذَهُ وَلَدًا وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ
Pharaoh’s wife said [to him], ‘[This infant will be] a [source of] comfort to me and to you. Do not kill him. Maybe he will benefit us, or we will adopt him as a son.’ But they were not aware.
Agha Ali Puya Commentary
Commentary on Quran 28:9
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 28:9] One of Firawn's daughters had patches on her body. Scholars of ancient scriptures had predicted that a creature like a human child would come floating in the river, if the saliva of that child is applied on the patches, they will be gone. When Musa came floating in the box, it was picked up and the astronomers were consulted to know if the baby is the promised deliverer of Bani Israil. They said: "No." Asi-ya, the wife of Firawn, said that they might be benefited by the child. The child's saliva was tried and the white patches on the body of Firawn's daughter disappeared.
