Answer:

The difference between the belief structure among Muslims has to do with descent. Sunni Muslims are the most dominant group. They believe that descent comes through Abu Bakr, Muhammad's friend and closest advisor. Shiites believe that descent must come through Muhammad's family, preferably his cousin and son-in-law.

Explanation: Beliefs about descent divide Muslims into different expressions of their faith as well as how the faith can manifest and the role of religious leaders.

What justification did the Zhou use for overthrowing the Shang dynasty, and why?

goldfiish [28.3K]

The Zhou created the Mandate of Heaven: the idea that there could be only one legitimate ruler of China at a time, and that this ruler had the blessing of the gods. They used this Mandate to justify their overthrow of the Shang, and their subsequent rule.
