Conflict Between Hazrat Aishah (rta) And Hazrat Ali (rta)

My question is about the status of Hazrat Ayesha in our eyes. God has revealed a complete surah in her respect. The Qur’an also requires of them to stay in their homes. Apparently her offensive against Hazrat Ali is a violation of the express Qur’anic command. If it was not wrong than why did she resign and withdraw herself from public politics? I also want to know she got killed?

My second question is why Hazrat Ali (rta) changed the capital from Medina to kufa? Was there a specific strategy involved? Or as the point seems people of Makkah were not ready to accept him?

My third question about the term shaheed? Can one dying of medical problems be called shaheed? Were Hazrat Umar (rta) and Usman (rta) shaheed or we only respectfully regard them as such. They were not fighting with enemy but they were only running the government and discharging their responsibility. Why don’t we confine the criteria of shaheed only to the martyrs of war as it seems most simple and appropriate because due to this broad criteria we have made the people who have not contributed in Muslim Umma much but became shaheed and are enjoying more status than deserved for example Banazir Bhutto, her father, Zia ul Haq etc?

Age Of Aishah (rta) At The Time Of Her Marraige

I was listening to an audio lecture by Mr Ghamidi. In the question/answer session someone asked Mr Ghamidi about the age of Sayyida Aisha's at the time of her marriagewith the Prophet (sws). In his response Mr Ghamidi stated that there is a style in the Arabiclanguage according to which when she said 6 or 9 years, the 10 was already implied init. He mentioned that there are some narratives in which the dates oflaylatulqadr are mentioned and similarly, only 6, 7 or 9th day is mentioned eventhough the dates are 25, 27 etc. The 20 was implied.

I was wondering if it would be possible to get references of thosenarratives of laylatalqadr that be mentioned

Age Of Hazrat Ayisha (rta) At The Time Of Marriage And Da’wah

How to answer non-Muslims about marriage of Prophet (sws) with Hazrat Aisha ? Is rajam (stoning) an Islamic punishment justified in this modern era? What should be the attitude of Muslims towards homosexuals in this western society, where they are accepted by law and community?

The Prophet’s (sws) Race With Aishah (rta)

I would like to ask you about the Hadith in which the Holy Prophet (sws) is reported to have raced with his wife A’ishah (rta). Please clarify the context and the meaning of this narrative. I have read it a couple of times in some articles on women sports and other issues.
