Sunni or shites?

Most Americans don't really understand either.

Before Muhammad passed away, He verbally appointed His cousin and son-in-law, 'Ali, as the head of the Islamic community or "Imam". 'Ali was succeeded by eleven other Imams in the direct line of descent. Muhammad had attempted to dictate a will in order to confirm the succession, but He was prevented from doing so by 'Umar, who later usurped the role of the Imams.

Divide and rule is the first priority of the West I hope some comman sense befalls Sunnis and shites and they soon realize that the plot is on to divide them. I say when your Allah is one your Quran is same you believe in the prophet Muhammed (PBUH) so why the infighting on petty issues. I foresee soon all the Muslim's will be united against the atrocities by the West

If it the case that Muslims cannot tell the difference between Sunni and Shiite then it is truly amazing that members of each sect can kill members of the other sect so easily. I have to doubt that the premise on which this question is based is true.

I'm not sure that that many Westerners can actually tell you the difference to be frank. It's a small issue about succession of the caliphate, frankly. About as relevant as the million splinters of Christianity. Not many people know because it's such a small and arcane topic.

Each morning upon rising, and each evening before sleeping, gives thanks for the life within you and for all life, for the good things the Creator has given you and for the opportunity to grow a little more each day. Consider your thoughts and actions of the past day and seek for the courage and strength to be a better person. Seek for the things that will benefit others (everyone).

2. Respect. Respect means "To feel or show honor or esteem for someone or something; to consider the well being of, or to treat someone or something with deference or courtesy". Showing respect is a basic law of life.

3. Once a council has decided something in unity, respect demands that no one speak secretly against what has been decided. If the council has made an error, that error will become apparent to everyone in its own time.

4. Be truthful at all times, and under all conditions.

5. Always treat your guests with honor and consideration. Give of your best food, your best blankets, the best part of your house, and your best service to your guests.

6. The hurt of one is the hurt of all; the honor of one is the honor of all.

7. Receive strangers and outsiders with a loving heart and as members of the human family.

8. All the races and tribes in the world are like the different colored flowers of one meadow. All are beautiful. As children of the Creator they must all be respected.

9. To serve others, to be of some use to family, community, nation, and the world is one of the main purposes for which human beings have been created. Do not fill yourself with your own affairs and forget you’re most important talks. True happiness comes only to those who dedicate their lives to the service of others.

10. Observe moderation and balance in all things.

11. Know those things that lead to your well-being and those things that lead to your destruction.

12. Listen to and follow the guidance given to your heart. Expect guidance to come in many forms; in prayer, in dreams, in times of quiet solitude, and in the words and deeds of wise Elders and friends.

Wahoo!!!
