What are the facts and implications behind the the Battle of the Camel, why did the Companions fight in it, and is Ibn al-Arabi's book considered a reliable reference?

The belief of the Sunnis and the Community (Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jama'ah) is to refrain from discussing what transpired between the Companions of the Prophet, peace be upon him, and to be pleased with all of them, holding that they were all mujtahids (exercised independent judgment), with the one who was correct receiving two rewards and the one who erred receiving one reward.

- Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, was reluctant to accept the caliphate after the assassination of Uthman, may Allah be pleased with him, and only accepted it due to the insistence of the Companions. - Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, was unable to exact retribution upon Uthman's killers because he did not know their specific identities, and they were mixed within his army and were numerous. - Four months after Ali's pledge of allegiance, Talhah and Al-Zubayr departed for Mecca and met with Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her. They agreed to proceed to Basra to gather men, preparing to apprehend Uthman's killers and execute retribution upon them. - Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, considered their departure a form of disobedience and feared the disintegration of the Islamic state, so he marched towards them. - Ali sent Al-Qa'qa' ibn Amr to Talhah and Al-Zubayr, inviting them to unity and community. Both parties agreed to reconcile, but Uthman's killers incited war during the night, leading to the outbreak of the Battle of the Camel without the intention of the Companions. - Despite the fighting, the Companions demonstrated sincerity, loyalty, and love for Allah. This is evidenced by Ali's wish that he had died before that day, his threat of hellfire for Al-Zubayr's killer, his mercy for Talhah, his order to lash anyone who spoke ill of Aisha, Aisha's mercy for the fallen on both sides, Ali's farewell to Aisha, her advice to the people not to blame, and Ali's call not to kill those who fled or were wounded. - These events indicate the virtue of the Companions, their nobility, their diligence in seeking truth, and the purity of their hearts. - It is recommended to read books such as "Al-Awasim min Al-Qawasim" by Ibn al-Arabi, "Minhaj al-Sunnah" by Ibn Taymiyyah, "Al-Bidaya wa al-Nihaya" by Ibn Kathir, and "Asr al-Khilafah al-Rashidah" by Dr. Akram Diya al-Umari.
