SUNNI VS. SHI’A (kind of like Catholics
vs. Protestants)
*Sunni accept Abu Bakr as the caliphate.
*Sunni Muslims are the largest denomination of Muslims
(90%).
*Sunni Muslims agree that the new leader
should be elected by a 6 member Muslim committee.
*Sunni means “One who follows the traditions of the
prophets.” These people study the life of Muhammad
and act accordingly.
SHI’A (Shi‘ite, Shi‘ah or Shia)
• Shi’a means “the party (followers) of Ali.”
• Some Muslims share the belief that leadership should
have stayed within the Prophet's own family, among
those specifically appointed by him, or among Imams
(Ali’s descendants) appointed by God Himself.
• Caliphs are selected through hereditary.
• The Shia Muslims believe that following the Prophet
Muhammad's death, leadership should have passed
directly to his cousin/son-in-law, Ali the 4th Caliph.
• Throughout history, Shia Muslims have not recognized the
authority of elected Muslim leaders, choosing instead to
follow a line of Imams which they believe have been
appointed by the Prophet Muhammad or God Himself.
SUNNI=Yellow. ShI’A=Red
SUFI
• A third religious sect found within the Muslim
religion.
• Sufi’s are like Christian monks.
• Sufi give up lives of riches and worldly
possessions to live a life centered around
worship of Allah and service.
