Detailed explanation-1: -The name ‘Sunni Islam’ derives from the term ahl al-sunna wa-l-jama’a (’people of the prophetic tradition and the community’). Sunni Islam claims to represent the Muslim consensus concerning the teachings and habits of the Prophet.
Detailed explanation-2: -Three of the world’s major religions–the monotheist traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam–were all born in the Middle East and are all inextricably linked to one another.
Detailed explanation-3: -Sunni Muslims believe that the Prophet did not explicitly declare a successor. Shia Muslims believe that the Prophet publicly designated his cousin and son-in-law, Hazrat Ali (peace be upon him), as the first in a line of hereditary Imams from the Prophet’s family to lead the community after him.
