How and why do Sunni and Shi'ite Muslims differ?

History
1 answer:
Kitty [74]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The main difference is their view on who Muhammad's successor should/should've been.

The people that believed that anyone with the right qualifications could take over insisted that Muhammad's father in law and friend, Abu Bakr, success him and became known as the Sunni.

The people who insisted that only someone blood related to Muhammad could take over, they wanted Muhammad's cousin and son-in-law, Ali ibn Abi Talib, to take over; and they became known as the Shi'ite.

They both follow the foundational practices and beliefs (Fice Pillars) of Islam though there are differences in the way they do some things and their views on the world. For example: Shi'ite Muslims complete all five daily ritual prayers but squeeze them into three sessions instead of five. Shi'ite Muslims also believe in the 'ten obligatory acts' in addition to the Five Pillars.

Recognize Bias and Propaganda Read the quote by Jefferson on page 348. Is it propaganda? Explain.
jeyben [28]

Jefferson's quote will be an example of propaganda if it influences the reader to agree with a statement, without using evidence, but using persuasive, sentimental, and manipulative elements.

<h3>What is propaganda?</h3>
  • It is a form of persuasion.
  • It is the ability to convince people to support opinions, beliefs, and precepts.

Propaganda is a way of manipulating the public to support a particular speaker. This speaker presents a statement, without showing logical evidence that proves why that statement is correct and reliable.

However, this speaker uses emotional, religious, psychological, or any other element capable of manipulating the audience dishonestly.

An example of this can be seen in a person who claims that vaccines cause disease because God did not show in the Holy Bible that people should be vaccinated. This person did not use scientific evidence to confirm his claim but used religious elements to manipulate a Christian audience into supporting him.

Unfortunately, you didn't show which Jefferson quote your question refers to. This left your question incomplete and it was not possible to find the complete version of it, which prevents me from providing an objective answer. However, I hope this information will help you find that answer.

What is the relationship between liberty and faction? how would thomas jefferson respond to a regime that attempts to control fa
jolli1 [7]
1) Factions can only arise in a consensus of freedom, because tyrannical governments do not allow opposition or different way of thinking, that is why a faction arises in the middle of freedom.
2) According to Tomas Jefferson, problems and internal differences were something that had to be accepted, and he preferred it instead of submitting to a foreign government that will inevitably create situations of oppression and tyranny. Jefferson had no problem dealing with factions, because he trusted the citizens who, well informed with their own government, would be able to settle differences and reach an agreement that would benefit all parties involved.
