Religious minorities were treated as second-rate beings by the Ottoman and Safavid empires. The Janissary system used Christians as the Sultan's bodyguards. The rivalry between Sunni and Shia Muslims was related to who would succeed the Prophet Muhammad.
<h3>What was the Janissary system?</h3>
- It was a system formed by several armies.
- It was the system formed by the elite army of the Ottoman sultans.
- It was the army used to fight Christians.
- This system led Christians who refused to convert to Islam as the sultan's slaves and bodyguards.
In the Ottoman and Safavid empires, religious minorities were seen as unfit for society. The sultans of these empires forced the people of the conquered areas to adopt the sultan's religion, Islam. Those who refused would be seen as inferior beings and therefore would be enslaved.
These empires witnessed disputes between Shia and Sunni Muslims. These disputes were based on the dispute over who would succeed the Prophet Muhammad. For the Shias, succession should take place within the descendants of the prophet, but for the Sunnis, the people should elect a successor.
