What are the differences between Sunnis and Shias? Muslims are split into two main branches, the Sunnis and Shias. The split originates in a dispute soon after the death of the Prophet Muhammad over who should lead the Muslim community. The great majority of Muslims are Sunnis - estimates suggest the figure is somewhere between 85% and 90%. Members of the two sects have co-existed for centuries and share many fundamental beliefs and practices. bbc/news/world-middle-east-16047709?OCID=fbbbcindia
