    1) Shiah or Shia, noun.1. one of the two great Moslem sects, centered in Iran, which regards Ali, the son-in-law of Mohammed, as the true successor of Mohammed and rejects the first three caliphs and the Sunnite book of tradition handed down under their protection.
    ______________________________
    2) Sunni, noun, pl. -ni or -nis.
    1. an orthodox Moslem; a Sunnite.
    2. the Sunnites as a group.
    Ex. The Sunni... compose about 90 per cent of present-day Islam (Newsweek).
    You should know all about Sunnites, if you are one yourself.
    ______________________________
    3) Mätam, the term used (mostly in South Asia) for the act of self-flaggelation during the Shia Remembrance of Muharram .
