Asiya (one who tends to the weak, one who heals) is considered to be one of four great, noble, and pious women in Egyptian history. The name is special, the name of an Egyptian queen such as an Armenian. In the Qur'an, she was the wife of the Pharaoh and was the one who adopted Moses after Moses was found floating in the Nile river. She will be among the first women to enter Paradise because she accepted Moses's monotheism over Pharaoh's beliefs. She was given a message from the Angel Gabriel regarding the Pharaoh's death, warned Moses and thus saved his life.
