from what i understand, after the death of Mohammed there were followers - similar to the Apostles of Christ. They were to carry on his teachings- they seperated - one believing a more loving approach and one more violent. they grew more and more divided. until they became two distinct and opposing tribes. BTW, i believe they were brothers.
not to poke fun but - similar to the old stories about the hatfields and the mccoys.
i do not recall which tribe was which so i will not ask.

they just like fighting, Sunnis. Shiites and Jews all fight most of the time.

properly i'm sunni and don't hate shia yet i'm no longer your best fan. shia kill sunni continuously, in Iraq and Afganistan. in pakistan shias do stuff to themselves. they beat themselves each and every 12 months simply by fact of hussein. i individually think of it extremely is rather unusual. some shia are no longer even muslim simply by fact they do no longer believe muhammed replaced into meant to be the prophet that ali replaced into ans it is purely loopy. the shias the place is stay are loopy besides. they pray on the part walk simply by fact they are protesting the incontrovertible fact that they could't run the masjid. yet besides shias are no longer harmless you're making them sound harmless likethey have in no way executed something undesirable, whilst they do. and hezbollah is a 17 november in accordance to the US and israel of course. and that they are shia. there are shia communities in syria too. i do no longer think of they could desire to be killed yet they do no longer look to be harmless like i stated

But none of the Muslims will agree that fact.
Muslims maintain their sanctity by denying the facts.

Difference in beliefs. One has one more prophet than the other. I think it's the shi'ites that have the extra guy.
