Shia: Is a Shia a Muslim or Kafir? Can a Sunni Muslim Pray Behind a Shia?
The word "Sunni" in Arabic comes from a word meaning "one who follows the traditions of the Prophet." The word "Shia" in Arabic means a group or supportive party of people. The commonly-known term is shortened from the historical "Shia-t-Ali," or "the Party of Ali." They are also known as followers of "Ahl-al-Bayt" or "People of the Household" (of the Prophet).
Both Sunni and Shia Muslims share the most fundamental Islamic beliefs and articles of faith. The Both sects use the Holy Quraan and follow prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). They both accept that there is only God .
The differences between these two main sub-groups within Islam initially stemmed not from spiritual differences, but political ones. The division between Shia and Sunni dates back to the death of the Prophet Muhammad, and the question of who was to take over the leadership of the Muslim nation.
Sunni Muslims agree with the position taken by many of the Prophet's companions, that the new leader should be elected from among those capable of the job. This is what was done, and the Prophet Muhammad's close friend and advisor, Abu Bakr, became the first Caliph of the Islamic nation.
On the other hand, some Muslims share the belief that leadership should have stayed within the Prophet's own family, among those specifically appointed by him, or among Imams appointed by God Himself.
The Shia Muslims believe that following the Prophet Muhammad's death, leadership should have passed directly to his cousin/son-in-law, Ali.
Throughout history, Shia Muslims have not recognized the authority of elected Muslim leaders, choosing instead to follow a line of Imams which they believe have been appointed by the Prophet Muhammad or God Himself.
Differences in Religious Beliefs and Practice
From this initial question of political leadership, some aspects of spiritual life have been affected and now differ between the two groups of Muslims. Muslims reject traditions about the Prophet's life and spiritual practice narrated by (Abu Bakr, Umar, Aisha, etc.These differences touch all detailed aspects of religious life: prayer, fasting, pilgrimage, etc.
When prostrating during ritual prayer (salah), place their forehead onto a piece of naturally-occurring material, often a clay tablet (mohr), soil (turbah) or at times sand from Karbala, the place where Imam Hussain was martyred, instead of directly onto a prayer mat. There is precedence for this in Sunni thought, as it is recommended not to prostrate on a non-natural surface.
Shias join their prayers instead of praying five times a day, they pray three times. They open their fast later than Sunnis. .
