Revelation to the Mother of Musa and Whether She Is Considered a Prophetess

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: In His saying, the Exalted,
And We sent not before you [as messengers] except men to whom We revealedوَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ إِلَّا رِجَالًا نُّوحِي إِلَيْهِم
[Yusuf 12:109]
He also said, the Exalted,
And We inspired to the mother of Mosesوَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَىٰ أُمِّ مُوسَىٰ
[Al-Qasas 28:7]
Does this indicate that the mother of Musa was a prophet?

Answer:
My brother, it is not like that. This revelation is a revelation of inspiration, like
And your Lord inspired to the beeوَأَوْحَىٰ رَبُّكَ إِلَى النَّحْلِ
[An-Nahl 16:68]
Yes, the bees. The prophets, this is inspiration, inspiration, a revelation of inspiration, not a revelation of sending. Yes.
