[Machine] Ammar came with his camel and sought permission to speak to Aisha. She said, "O my mother!". He replied, "I am not your mother." She said, "Yes, you are, even if you dislike it." He asked, "Who is this with you?" She said, "This is Al-Ashtar." He said, "You are the one who wanted to kill my cousin's son." He replied, "Yes, I wanted to kill him and he also wanted to kill me." She said, "If you had killed him, you would have never succeeded. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: 'No Muslim's blood is lawful to shed except in one of three cases: a man who commits murder and is killed, a man who commits adultery after being married, or a man who renounces his religion after embracing Islam.'"

[Machine] I went to Aisha, along with Ammar and Al-Ashtar. Ammar greeted her saying, "Peace be upon you, O Mother." She replied, "Peace be upon the one who follows guidance until it returns to him twice or thrice." Then she said, "By Allah, you are definitely my son, even if you dislike it." She asked, "Who is this with you?" He replied, "This is Al-Ashtar." She said, "So you are the one who wanted to kill my nephew?" He said, "Yes, I wanted that and still want it." She said, "If you did it, would you have succeeded?" Ammar replied, "O Aisha, I have heard or heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'The blood of a Muslim is not lawful except for three reasons: the one who commits adultery after being married, the one who kills a soul unjustly, and the one who apostatizes after embracing Islam.'

[Machine] Ammar entered upon Aisha on the Day of Camel and greeted her by saying, "Peace be upon you, O my mother." She replied, "I am not your mother." He insisted, "Yes, indeed you are my mother, even if you dislike it." She asked, "Who is the one whose voice I hear with you?" He replied, "It is Al-Ashtar." She said, "O Al-Ashtar! So, you are the one who intended to kill my nephew?" He said, "I had intended to kill him, and he had intended to kill me, but he was not able to. Later, she said, 'By Allah, if you had killed him, you would not have succeeded. As for you, O Ammar, you know that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, 'No one should be killed except in three cases: a man who committed murder and is to be killed, a man who has committed adultery after being married, and a person who renounces Islam."
