The Shiites believed that Ali, Muhammad's son in law was the fourth rightly guided caliph, as he was related to Muhammad. This caused the first division in Islam as two groups, the Shiites and the Sunnis formed.

When Muhammad died, most of the Muslims chose Abu Bakr, a close Companion of Muhammad, as their political and social leader known as Caliph.  Abu Bakr was accepted as Caliph by a majority of the community because they saw the succession in a political way and not spiritual one. Another group, however, smaller and more self proclaimed correct, which also had in it some of the senior Companions, considered that the Prophet's son-in-law and cousin, Ali, should be Caliph. They understood that the Prophet had appointed him as the sole interpreter of his legacy, in both political and spiritual terms.

It was helpless though, because eventually, Abu Bakr was became First Caliph.

That smaller group was the Shiites.

Why did federalist argue for a new charter that would replace the articles of confederation?​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

To strengthen the central government.

Explanation:

The federalists argued that the Articles of Confederation weakened the Congress of its power and sovereignity. Though Congress was endowed with numerous powers on paper, in reality the Articles rendered no real power to the Congress.

This was seen as a major threat by the federalists so they demanded for a new charter called The Constitution to strengthen the central government/Congress. The federalists finally concluded the Constitutional Convention of 1787 and a the US Constitution was drafted.
