Community Messageboard 3: I would argue... by Aviendha

I would argue... Aviendha - 28/04/2004 04:05:41 PM

I suspect that Muslims would say that of course they do. Muslim women who don't want to submit to Islam aren't really Muslims, are they?

..that since there are different interpretations of the religion, there are different interpretations in the laws.

Look how many Christian denominations there are. There have got to be several different "denominations" in Islam, as well.

That wouldn't make them not Muslem.

Lots of stuff. I believe the split occurred because there were differences over who should lead the Muslims after Mohammad.

Shias believe that the leader of Islam should be a descendent of Mohammad through his cousin Ali and Fatima.

Sunnis don't.

Oh, thanks. I heard the two terms all the time, and I have no idea what they mean. But there you go. 2 denominations as it were, with two ideas of how to read the Koran.
