I heard a scholar claim that Imam Ali divorced Aisha from Prophet Muhammad (s) after the Battle of Jamal. How credible is this information? Could you provide strong and reliable references to support this claim?
Rebecca Masterton

The Battle of the Camel took place the moment that Imam 'Ali (as) was voted in as caliph, approximately twenty-five years after the Holy Prophet (s) had passed away, so it would not have been possible for Imam 'Ali (as) to divorce 'A'isha from the Prophet (s).

Year of the Holy Prophet's (s) passing: 11 AH.

Year of the Battle of the Camel: 36 AH
Are the hadiths from Sahih Muslim 2408, where Umar contradicts the Prophet's order, and Sahih Muslim 3175, where Aisha claims the Prophet was bewitched, authentic or false?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

The narration claiming that the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) was bewitched is definitely false allegation on the Prophet. You read in Sura Furqan, verse 8 : : The wrongdoers say (to the believers) : You are following non but a bewitched man.

'This is a clear evidence against this false allegation.

Umar contradicting the Prophet (SAWA) has been narrated in many authentic narrations in Sunni books.

What was the major secret that Hafsa revealed to Ayesha as alluded to in Surah 66?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

We find in the narrations that the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) has informed Hafsa daughter of Omar a secret about the turn back of many persons including her father and his group which will happen after his life. She disclosed thecsecret to Aysha daughter of Abu Bakr. Allah (SWT) informed the Prophet (SAWA) about the conspiracy of these two wives along with their group against the Prophet (SAWA).

Allah (SWT) Has threatened them if they don't repent and leave conspiring against the Prophet (SAWA), Allah is his Supported and Jibreel and the best if the believers and all angles will his supporters.( Surat, verse 4.)
