Answer:    The issue of choosing a caliph

Explanation:  The issue that divided Muslims shortly after Muhammad's death was who will succeed Muhammad, i.e. who will be the caliph. Sunni had the thought that anyone is capable enough and qualified can be religious leader - caliph, so it does not have to be from Muhammad's family. Shiite thought that the caliph could only be Muhammad's cousin, following the principle of royal inheritance.

<span>The issue that divided Shiite and Sunni Muslims was that Sunni wanted a caliph who was a pious community man, and simply a leader not a holy man. Shiites believe that the only true successors are blood-kin to Mohammad, and divinely inspired.</span>

What advice for advancement did booker T Washington offer to African Americans
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Washington was known as a racial accommodationist. He rejected the pursuit of political and social equality with whites in favor of developing vocational skills and a reputation for stability and dependability. In a famous 1895 Atlanta address, Washington urged African Americans to "cast down your buckets where you are," that is, to remain in the Jim Crow South and tolerate racial discrimination rather than make what he considered intemperate calls for equality. "In all things that are purely social," he said, blacks and whites "can be as separate as the fingers, yet one as the hand in all things essential to mutual progress." As the President of Tuskegee Institute, Booker T. Washington developed an extensive network of contacts that gave him influence with white political leaders and philanthropists as well as black businessmen, journalists and college Presidents
