Morphology
strong + belief
The meaning 'a firm or unshakable conviction' is directly derivable from combining 'strong' (intense) with 'belief' (confidence or conviction). This adjective + noun intensification is a basic, cross-linguistically common compositional pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand the phrase.
Etymology
Strong belief paints a simple picture: imagine someone holding a heavy stone called belief that does not move because it is strong. So it means a firm 'conviction' that does not change even without proof.
