Which Hadith in Mustadrak Al Hakim prophecised the battle of Jamel?

Watching this [video](https://youtu.be/G9A5yPhE2Jo?list=PLYO6Oz7uwCSjdlPsyDXgDOf5t2_IfBky3) (Timestamp: 46:37 - 48:00) about the Signs of the day of Judgement Sheikh Yasir Qadhi mentions that there is a hadith in Mustadrak Al Hakim in which Battle of Jamel is prophecised. The hadith basically says that the Prophet pbuh, A'isha R.A. and Ali R.A. are sitting in the same room and the Prophet Pbuh talks to Ali R.A. and asks him that if there is to be a disagreement between you and A'isha (R.A) then return her safely from where she came. This Hadith according to the Sheikh refers to a prophecy about the Battle of Jamel (Battle of the camel) as Ali R.A.returned A'isha R.A. safely after the battle. I was also wondering if anyone knows which hadith this is, and if the collection is available online?

Whenever I refer to Wikipedia to read about history of early Islam and later caliphates, many articles cite Wilferd Ferdinand Madelung in some controversial statements that he make. I will list below some statements : **Battle of Camel** : 1. "While there is no record of any violence according to Madelung, they both later broke their oaths, claiming that they had pledged their allegiance to Ali under **public pressure**." 2. "The negotiations failed after three days and the two sides readied for battle. According to Madelung, the popular story about successful negotiations is **pure fiction**. This story alleges that it was Uthman's murderers who sabotaged the negotiations and provoked the battle." 3. "Talha was killed by the Umayyad's Marwan, another notable rebel, who later told Uthman's son that he had taken care of one of the murderers of Uthman for him." 4. "While Talha had indeed led the opposition to Uthman, it has been suggested that Marwan's motive in killing Talha was to rid Muawiya of a serious contender for the caliphate. After the battle, Marwan joined the court of Muawiya in Damascus as a senior advisor." 5. "When the news of Zubayr's death reached Ali, he commented that Zubayr had many times fought valiantly in front of Muhammad but that he had come to an evil end. According to Madelung, the popular story of Ali cursing the killers of Zubayr is **fiction**." **Batte of Siffin** : 1. "When his proposal was rejected, Muawiya declared war on Ali in a letter on behalf of the Syrians, with the objectives of killing the murderers of Uthman, deposing Ali, and establishing a Syrian council (shura) to appoint the next caliph, presumably Muawiya. Regarding this letter, Madelung observes that : Uthman had meant **little** to him [Muawiya], he [Muawiya] had done nothing to aid him [Uthman], and felt no personal obligation to seek revenge. Yet he [Muawiya] immediately sensed the political utility of a claim of revenge for the blood of the wronged caliph, as long as he, Muawiya, could decide on whom to pin the blame." 2. "Amr, a political strategist, was widely believed to be the **illegitimate** son of Muawiya's father, Abu Sufyan." 3. "Amr was also a prime instigator in the murder of Uthman and had publicly taken some credit for it." Wikipedia cited him in almost every statement mentioned in the entire article : enter image description here enter image description here

Why do Shia believe in Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) but at the same time question his honor?

I am interested to get the answer to this contradiction which was made by almost all Shia. Actually, I asked many Shia people to explain to me and to solve the following belief contradiction: Do you believe in Mohamed(SAWW) as a prophet? They answered me yes. And What about Aisha(May God Be Pleased With Her) ? They answered me: She is a wife of our Prophet ? I ask again: Do you love Mohammad (Peace Be Upon Him) ? They said: Sure, we love him. Do you love his wife **Aisha** ? To this, they are mostly in silence or say "No". When I asked the reason for it, they answered : She was a cause and temptation in the killing of Al-Zubair. By the way, they believe in [Battle of the Camel]. May I get an explanation of contradiction in the following question; I ask any of shia people : Assume I'm your friend lover to your heart? Assume I say to you: your wife is a prostitute? What about our friendship? Does our friendship still as it were? Now the main interesting question to me here is : **Why Shia think they believe in Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) and at the same time they stab his honor** ? **Addendum** Aisha, (May God be Pleased with Her), did not betray the Messenger (Peace Be Upon Him) as his wife, because she always followed his path (teachings).
