Hello there!
Even though I'm personally an atheist, I'm quite interested in several aspects of religion as a whole. And while reading about Islam in particular, I noticed that throughout history (and also today) there have been certain issues in Muslim countries that arose because of rivalry between Shia and Sunni Muslims; some extremist groups even commit massacres against the opposing branch of Islam. I realize that the average Muslim, Shia or Sunni, likely doesn't hate the other group so vividly, but it does raise the question: what causes these problems? Has there been a major conflict in Muslim history that gave rise to such rivalry?
Needless to say, any answers are more than appreciated, and I look forward to learning more about the rich history of Islam.
