Some Sabi (i.e. war prisoners, children and woman only) were brought before the Prophet (ﷺ) and behold,
a woman amongst them was milking her breasts to feed and whenever she found a child amongst the
captives, she took it over her chest and nursed it (she had lost her child but later she found him) the
Prophet said to us, "Do you think that this lady can throw her son in the fire?" We replied, "No, if she
has the power not to throw it (in the fire)." The Prophet (ﷺ) then said, "Allah is more merciful to His
slaves than this lady to her son."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 78, Hadith 30
