Sunni, Shia, Ismaeli and Sufis what’s the difference? - Modibbo Bilal Jallo
Description
Power, politics, and the inner life collide as we unpack Islam’s major branches with uncommon clarity. We sit down with Modibo to trace how a single question—Who succeeds the Prophet?—shaped centuries of belief and practice, and why those differences still matter today. From the companions and Ahl al‑Bayt to the quiet work of the heart, this is a guided tour through history, law, and living faith that respects the complexity without hiding behind jargon.
We start with the Sunnah and Hadith—how the Prophet’s words, actions, and character became a model for daily life—and then zoom into the early succession dispute that defined Sunni and Shia identity. Expect a candid, humane explanation of the caliphs, the role of family lineage, and how memory and authority shape ritual differences like prayer counts and which sources carry the most weight. Along the way, we explore Sufism not as a separate sect, but as Islam’s inner dimension: the training of adab (character) and the “four enemies” that test us—ego, desire, worldliness, and the inflamed self.
We also map the landscape beyond headlines: where Shia communities concentrated historically, how Ismailis and Twelvers approach esoteric meaning, and why Sunni legal schools (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi‘i, Hanbali) differ on method yet share purpose. The most moving parts may be the practical ones—greeting etiquette, dress and modesty, the intention behind jewelry, and the call to spend in ways that lift people rather than signal status. In the U.S. context, we connect these teachings to reform and rehabilitation, honoring figures who translated timeless principles into everyday survival and dignity.
