Google is ur friend.

danduchi:
The truth is this man leads the islamic brotherhood, was at home and didn't kw what was happening after his followers exhibited their deed but his child was killed, wife manhandled, he was shot and beaten too... That's how we should fight corruption with Politicians

fighting corruption like that na longtin jare, just place "capital punishment " as penalty for corrupt official #simple

I Pity zak,see him eating tuwo while his sons & followers are dead.

chrixus:
So after being shot and humiliated ? Am sure there is more to this than not just allowing the COAS free movement... Your followers were killed yet u still allow them dine with you #mtchew

Who told you he was shot or he was the one in that picture

Just like Catholic and Protestant in the Christiandom, Muslims also divide into various sects among which are the Sunni and the Shia. These are the two major sects.

AlBaqir:
Sunni Muslim is the vast majority of the muslim world in terms of population while Shi'a is the minority.

Sunni from the word "sunnah (practice of the prophet & that of sahaba)". They are also often called "Ahlu sunnah wal jama'a" (people of sunnah and community). Sunni claim to follow "Qur'an and sunnah" of the prophet through and as narrated by the generality of the companions of the prophet (saws).

Shi'a means supporter, partisan, follower. The word is often used along a noun for it to make any sense. The full "Shi'at ahl al-bayt" (follower or supporter of ahl al-bayt). Ahl al-bayt are the household or family of the prophet (saws). Shi'a claim to follower "Qur'an and the ahl al-bayt" whom they believed the holy prophet left behind to teach Qur'an and his sunnah. Shi'a also believed in the companions of the prophet but placed ahl al-bayt above all of them for receiving guidance since there are many open and hidden hypocrites among the general companions.

POINT OF DIFFERENCES!
Sunni believed the holy prophet did not leave anybody behind as his successor. They believe the appointment of the successor is left in the hands of the muslim community after the death of the prophet. Thereby they choose AbuBakar as the 1st khalifa (successor of the prophet) at a place called Saqifa Banu saida. AbuBakar alone choose Umar as 2nd khalifa. 5member committee out of 6 choose Uthman as the 3rd khalifa. And the community at large choose Ali as the 4th khalifa.
Sunni claimed these 4 to be "the rightly guided khalifs".

Shia on the other hand believed the holy prophet never leave matter of chosen his successor in the hands of his community. Shia claim Ali was chosen as his successor when he (saws) said at his last Hajj: "ofwhomsoever I am his master, Ali is his master". Shi'a also claimed the holy prophet has named 12 khalifa to succeed him after his death (wikipedia) of which Ali is the 1st. Shia also believed the fact that the prophet has left "Qur'an and his ahl al-bayt" for muslim's guidance, Ali who was the head of this ahl al-bayt deserved to be the 1st khalifa. Shi'a do not believe in the legitimacy of the first 3 Sunni khalifas.

Going with this point of differences,there are differences as per beliefs in Allah, prophet, salat, and virtually every aspect of religious life is concern. Some are major differences while some are minor.

As you've embark on this research, you will come across a lot of contrasting information from different quarters. Some will be for and some will be against of. You can only attain a level of certainty when you read from both sides (shia and sunni responses to each other's theory) with an open mind and sincerity.
May Allah guide and keep us to the right path.

Best of goodness.

THE ISSUE UNDER DISCOURSE
Sheik Zakyzaky's group is known as Islamic Movement of Nigeria. And the movement started in the late 70. Today its followers is in MILLIONS across the North. There are other Shia groups under different Scholars in the north and south-west with NO connection whatsoever with IMN. IMN are known because of their population and influence in the society. Its just unfortunate that this group came to limelight with this kind of violent incidence. Judging the whole movement with stupidity of her certain reckless followers is not rational. In fact its like judging the evil acts of Boko-Haram, Isis, Isil, al-Qaeda as Islamic acts on one hand and Sunni Islam on the other hand since those groups profess Sunnism.

I as a Shi'i Muslim have opened a thread on the scenario and politely give my judgment of the situation:

Huh! Nigerians are gullible that they cant think properly,is it possible that a man was beaten up like dying & still dinning...the pics is very old one,the cowaard military just want to play propaganda

janellemonae:
Is it because ur plans to manipulate d situation, like uve bn doing for d past 3days, didn't work out. Just like u tried to manipulate pple against fulani herdsmen who kidnapped falae.

I know a Biafran by their comments. A pinch of truth (which is left out most times) and a large dose of fraudulent false outrage mixed wt manipulative claims of victimhood.

I think its safe to say you are confused. Who is a 'Biafra' ?

You see,that video is a false flag propaganda.it is just use as a pretest to commit the crime against the shia...well,you wont understand.

Dude u r hillarious. They(isrealis and americans) gave order to the COAS who is a northerner and likely a muslim? Oh where thy the same ones who asked the shiittes to occupy the road illegaly and deny people access? Where they the ones who put machete in the hands of the shittes and asked them to say in hausa that they would only leave the road if their spiritual leader says so, else the army would have to drive throught their dead bodies..

Please fact is they willfully commited suicide.

That is not characteristics of Shiite Muslim if you use the word "Shia". I cannot however dispute you if you restrict those characteristics to some of Sheik Zakyzaky's group called IMN. An idiot or group of idiots usually start crazy things but the consequences will spread big and the leader of such organization will be held responsible. Culturally Hausas (irrespective of religious or sectarian affiliation) are known to be aggressive and intolerant. An Hausa muslim is quite different from Yoruba Muslim in socio-cultural dealings which in one way or the other have its influence in Religion. Shiite are also in large numbers in south-west and other part of the nation and you hardly hear violence noise.
