The one on the left is sunni and the one on the right is shia.

WellThen?

Shia believe after Muhammed died he passed his teachings/reign to the ayatollahs. Like the Pope in some ways. Another leader to follow. Sunni practice more from the direct teachings of Muhammed himself.

This article explains it.

It's an ecumenical matter.

Which came first the sunni or shia?

Uriel.

It was very sunni today for sure

Appreciate the genuine answers, I'll give the article a read. Never found puns funny but appreciate the attempts to appease me.

sunni are the more aggressive and extremist of the two.

most islamis terrorist groups are sunni, funded by the Saudis.

shia are found in Iraq/iran, Syria, Lebanon (Hezbollah)

It's currently Sunny for the Sunnis and a bit shiate for the Shias. Basically. ISIS is Sunni. Also, where did they get the last I from?? Levant =/= I

Sunnis that follow an extreme version of the teachings of the Wa'habi sect, just to complicate matters.

There's a rake of them allright. Don't know if there's as many as Christian sects or not.

I think the big question to ask is - "will this spread?". If they get as far as Lucan, I'm growing a beard, just saying like.

Shia is the woman. She's had a great career as a solo artist beyond the partnership. Sunni died from hitting a tree while skiing.

From the article: However another smaller group, which also included some of the senior Companions, believed that the Prophet's son-in-law and cousin, Ali, should be Caliph.

So aul Mo allowed his cousin marry his daughter?

Yeah, when you point the advantages to it...like us never havin to get the tay, for instance - they get all angry. "Freed from the burden of choice" is how I put it.

Both have extremists. Both are mostly composed ordinary feckers getting on with their existence. So no, not really, though the Sunni extremists are the Bin Laden/'shopping centre near you' type.
