Koran 20:40 — soera Taha, vers 40

إِذۡ تَمۡشِيٓ أُخۡتُكَ فَتَقُولُ هَلۡ أَدُلُّكُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَن يَكۡفُلُهُۥۖ فَرَجَعۡنَٰكَ إِلَىٰٓ أُمِّكَ كَيۡ تَقَرَّ عَيۡنُهَا وَلَا تَحۡزَنَۚ وَقَتَلۡتَ نَفۡسٗا فَنَجَّيۡنَٰكَ مِنَ ٱلۡغَمِّ وَفَتَنَّـٰكَ فُتُونٗاۚ فَلَبِثۡتَ سِنِينَ فِيٓ أَهۡلِ مَدۡيَنَ ثُمَّ جِئۡتَ عَلَىٰ قَدَرٖ يَٰمُوسَىٰ

Toen jouw zus ging en zei: “Zal ik u iemand laten zien die hem kan zogen?” Op die manier brachten Wij je bij je moeder terug, zodat zij haar ogen kon koelen en dat ze niet bedroefd zou zijn. Toen doodde jij een man, maar Wij redden jouw van een groot probleem en hebben je met een zware beproeving beproefd. Toen bleef jij een aantal jaren bij het volk van Midian. Toen kwam jij hier volgens een vastgestelde termijn terug dat Ik voor jou bepaald hebt, O Moesa.

[And We favored you] when your sister went and said, 'Shall I direct you to someone who will be responsible for him?' So We restored you to your mother that she might be content and not grieve. And you killed someone, but We saved you from retaliation and tried you with a [severe] trial. And you remained [some] years among the people of Madyan. Then you came [here] at the decreed time, O Moses
