While Sunni Islam eventually became politically and numerically dominant, Sunni and Shiʿi identities took centuries to develop as independent communities. When modern discussions of sectarianism in the Middle East reduce these identities to a 1400-year war between Sunnis and Shiʿis, we create a false narrative.Past imperfect (ARC Humanities Press)IslamMiddle EastHistoryTo 1500SunnitesRelationsShīʻahShīʻahRelationsSunnitesIslamRelationsMiddle EastReligionIslamHistorySunnitesRelationsShīʻah.ShīʻahRelationsSunnites.IslamRelations.297.804209560902Baker Christine D.282710UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910480069303321Medieval Islamic sectarianism2457378UNINA
