I learnt Shiite muslims are the followers of Ali.
What make Shiites believe in Ali?
Some Sunnis say that Shiites are not really Muslims. Why is that?
Could you please explain with some exmaples.
Thank you.
The disputations between Sunni and Shiite are over the succession of the califate. The Shiites believe that a descendent of the prophet (Ali was the nearest descendent) and according to the Shiites the rightful calif which they call an Imam. The closest companions of Mohammed took a vote and elected Malik (I think his name was but my Islamic history is very rusty). Sunnis believe the succession of the califate is an electoral issue not a hereditery inheritance.
