The division between Sunnis and Shiites is at the largest scale and oldest in the history of Islam. This article compares the differences between the two. There are number of reasons of conflict between them. We will discuss these conflicts in a general form. Initially the difference between Sunni and Shiites was merely a question of who should lead the Muslim community. Today there are significant differences in the structures and organisation of religious leadership in the Sunni and the Shiites communities. There is a hierarchy to the Shiites clergy and political and religious authority is vested in the most learned who emerge as spiritual leaders. These leaders are transnational and religious institutions are funded by religious taxes called Khums (20% of annual excess income) and Zakat (2.5%). Shiites institutions abroad are also funded this way.

The basis for Kashmir India Conflict were laid when the ruler of princely state of Kashmir, Maharaja Hari Singh, was also given the right to decide to merge with India or Pakistan or to remain independent within certain boundaries.

The majority of the world's billion-odd Muslims are Sunnis. Approximately 10 to 15 percent of all Muslims follow the Shiite branch (pronounced Shiite, Shiites or Shia). Beyond that, it gets slightly complicated. Both of them live in different parts of the world. Sunnis form the overwhelming majority in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Yemen, Pakistan, Indonesia, Turkey, Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.

I have been a traveller for almost three ears now, and my favorite destination is the mountainous region of Lanao del Norte in Mindanao where natives are living mixed with Muslim races. One thing that fascinates me the most in those areas is not the beautiful views and good environments, in which anions are abundant and fresh mineral waters are everywhere, but the delicious dishes and delicacies of Muslim people. Yes! Muslims are good chefs with spicy twist in every recipe. So yummy! So, let's forget about the war and conflicts for a while and taste the common dishes of Muslims in Mindanao.

The reason of conflicts between the two sects goes back to the seventh century. Sunni refers to the Sunnah, or oral traditions and interpretations of the Koran - a body of work similar to the Jewish Talmud. Sunnis believe that the position of Caliph should be a position to which one is elected by the religious leaders of the Islamic community, and not dependent on direct lineage from Mohammed (PBUH). Shiite comes from the word shia, which means "the party (of Ali). Most Shiites believe that the 12th Imam will reemerge someday as the Mahdi or Messiah, and reassert his leadership of the Islamic world. In the meantime, ayatollahs are elected to serve as caretakers of the faith.

The need of time it to bring a change and show people the true and actual side of Islam. This blog will move around the misconceptions about Islam and how we can snub them and how we can change the discernment of individuals against Islam. Every religion has good and bad people and we should always look towards good to spread happiness and to avoid conflict. Islam is a prominent and well spread religion worldwide and it contains people of all kind. There were several incidents after which people and especially people of the west started thinking that Muslims are terrorists, extremists and merciless people like the incident of 9/11. This perception is wrong and we should not blame all the Muslims for this bizarre incident done by some ruthless people. Jihad is another issue and people do have misconceptions about it as well. http://muslim-academy.com/misconceptions-about-islam/
