This video is a clear, respectful, and simple explanation of the 5 major differences between Sunnis and Shias — not to debate who is right or wrong, but to help Muslims better understand their own Ummah. In this video, you’ll learn: How Sunni and Shia prayer differs Where each group gets its religious authority Why they disagree on temporary marriage (Mut’ah) How Ashura is understood and practiced differently The difference between Hajj Despite these differences, Sunnis and Shias:
