Muslims, Shi'ite and Sunni
The two main groups of Islam,
of which the Sunnis are the majority.
The split rose from an early dispute over
who should be the leader of Islam after the death of Muhammad.
The larger group, the Sunnis, argued that the successor
should be appointed by election and consensus, as tradition dictated.
(Sunni comes from the Arabic word Sunna, meaning “tradition.”)
The smaller group believed that Muhammad's successors
should come from his family, starting with Ali, his son-in-law.
These, the partisans of Ali, were named from the word Shia, meaning “partisan” in Arabic.
The defeat of the Shi'ites by the Sunnis is thought to have determined some of the characteristic attitudes of the two groups,
the Sunnis stressing merit and achievement,
the Shi'ites appealing to the defeated, poor, and oppressed.
Random House Kernerman Webster's College Dictionary,
usage:
Moslem, once the more widely used form,
still has currency but has declined in favor of Muslim.
The use of Muhammadan in reference to Islam or its adherents
is rejected by Muslims themselves,
as is Muhammadanism for Islam.
