    Would love to see one of these on the branches of Buddhism.
    Mahayana, Vajrayana and Theravada are the branches of Buddhism that we still have. There once were more schools of thought. Some were much more conservative or more extreme in their practice. We basically have just the moderates left.

      I second this, especially considering that Theravada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana are pretty broad, monolithic terms for what are actually a whole range of schools. And you're right that there was (and in some cases, still is) a wide range of ideologies represented by those schools. I know this is especially evident in my own Vajrayana practice (I took refuge with a lama in the Karma Kagyu school, home to competing Karmapas, for example).

      Vajryana is not really a ‘branch’ of Buddhism, in that it self conceptualizes as a subsect or practice within Mahayana practice, although not all Mahayana practitioners practice Vajryana.

Additionally his background in cartography would dovetail nicely with your presentation style.

      Muslims divide over politics and war.

    a tree of christian groups will be fun. Especially with the vast branches of eastern Christianity.
    Like how there are currently 4 patriarchs of Alexandria, with a fifth branch that died out in the 1960s. And those all lay claim to the same seat, but from different branches that see different lines of succession.
    But they are fairly chill with each other.

    The story of how the Khawarij Split
    Kinda a funny story
    Basically ofc the Mutahakkimah came first (the ones who killed Ali RA), these are the originals, called such because they said to judge only by the Quran, and then Ibn Abbas RA came and converted many of them back to Sunnism. Many of them became his students. Those who stayed as Mutahakkimah eventually fizzled out.
    Then one of Ibn Abbas RA's most prominent student was Nafi ibn Azraq. He eventually considered himself more knowledgeable than Ibn Abbas RA and broke away after a falling out. He went to Ibn Zubair then quit that too. He and his followers became known as the Azariqa. He was the first Kharijite to build his own Fiqh and rudimentary theology. He said that menstruating women should fast and pray, and he said that you cut a thief's hand all the way from shoulders. Basically he denied hadiths. He also said, ofc, the whole thing about those who disagree bring Kafir that you can kill, and that you can kill women and children (but not Ahlul Kitab).
    On this, his own student Najda ibn Amir broke from him. He said that to say that you can kill women and children is Kufr, and therefore Nafi is a Kafir and anyone who supports him is a Kafir and anyone who doubts he's a Kafir is a Kafir. So, splitter. You now had the Najdaiyah.
    And you had many other sects of Khawarij that showed up, each considering the other Kafir. Remember, when you are primarily concerned with finding faults in others, others will look for faults in you. When you seek division, division will seek you. When you splinter you'll get splintered.
    When the Umayyads then Abbassids eventually exterminated them, the only Kharijite sect that remained was the ibaDiyah. Abdullah Ibn IbaD was a close friend of Nafi and student if Ibn Abbas. Unlike Nafi, Ibn IbaD stuck with Ibn Zubayr when Nafi broke away, but he broke off later. Nafi wrote a letter asking Ibn IbaD to come join the Azariqa. Ibn IbaD said they were too crazy. He formed his own circle, and they believed that they ain't kafir if they break away but Kafir in the blessings of Allah. It seems as if Ibn Ibad was more scholarly inclined and more mature. Some of the khariji inclined students of Ibn Abbas joined Ibadis. The Ibadis weren't harmed by Umayyads and Abbassids. Around 250-350 Hijra, they migrated. Some to Oman some to Algeria. Before they migrated, one of their main founders studied with amr Ibn Ubaid and dirar Ibn amr. So they had khariji notions and then adopt mutazilism. Went to Oman cuz Ibn Abbas had a friend, Jabir Ibn Zaid, from an Omani tribe. Now Omanis have Ibadis. Sunnis and Ibadis get along fine there in Oman. In fact, more and more modern scholars are saying that the Ibadis aren't Khawarij

    First of all, thanks for making this wonderful, amazing & creative video. Really liked & enjoyed watching it.
    After that, in a part which belong to another very important branch of Shia Islam Unfortunately, the information and names of Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims are ignored or forgotten!!!
    This branch of Shia Islam, the shia imami Ismaili nizari Aga khani is the only branch which guides & leads by a living hereditary imam who directly is descended from Hazrat Ali & Bibi Fatima, therefore his lineage goes back & connects to prophet of Islam Hazrat Muhammad (p.u.h.h.p)
    Now this branch of Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims are leading by 49th hereditary Imam.
    I hope you maker & creator of this video consider a new updated version or separate version about the ignored & unmentioned Shia Ismaili Nizari Imams!
    Note:
    In Ismaili belief, imam Husain is 2nd Imam, therefore Ismail is not 7th imam but 6th Imam. Cause of hereditary lineage & transfering imamat from father to son!
    So, if someone don't know about this small but important point, look at twelvers imam names, might thinks Imam Hussain is the son of Hazrat Hasan, which is wrong according to Nas bil Imamat!
    *[1) Mawlana Ali
    2) Mawlana Husain
    3) Mawlana Zainul Abidin
    4) Mawlana Muhammedinil Baqir
    5) Mawlana Jafar Sadiq]*
    Note: Hazrat Hasan is considered a member of "Ahlulbait" & "temporal Imam" in Ismaili belief!
    So, after (6) Imam Ismail ibn Jafar al-sadiq, there are the following Imams for mentioned Shia Imami Ismaili Nizari Muslin:
    7) Mawlana Muhammad ibn Ismaili
    8) Mawlana Wafi Ahmad
    9) Mawlana Taqi Muhammad
    10) Mawlana Raziyiddin Abdullah

    19) Mawlana Nizar
    20) Mawlana Hadi
    21) Mawlana Mutadi
    22) Mawlana Qahir
    23) Mawlana Ala-Zikrihis-Salaam
    24) Mawlana A'ala Muhammad
    25) Mawlana Jalaliddin Hasan
    26) Mawlana Alaiddin Muhammad
    27) Mawlana Ruknuddin Khair Shah
    28) Mawlana Shamsuddin Muhammad
    29) Mawlana Qasim Shah
    30) Mawlana Islam Shah
    31) Mawlana Muhammad ibni Islam Shah

      General differences arise from Sharia (law) and cultural etiquettes/norms. Turkey uses secular law, other countries use hybrid systems such as secular plus sharia. Secular law itself differs depending on which country colonized it---so Tunisia might use aspects of French law and Sharia...etc Saudi Arabia uses the Hanbali school of law (Sharia) and so forth....
      Thus differences in practice happen even though the core belief system remains the same....

      Interestingly enough both Afghanistan and Turkey follow the Hanafi denomination of Sunni Islam, however how Islam is practiced in these two societies seem to be complete polar opposites from each other. It mostly boils down to cultural practices and how strictly a certain society practices the religion as opposed to any major theological differences. Another example is Tunisia who follow the Maliki denomination yet tend be viewed as quite liberal in terms of the Arab world, however there neighbors, Libya who also follow the Maliki denomination are quite a conservative society. Same logic applies to Saudi Arabia(more conservative) and the UAE(more liberal) who both are Hanbali.

    I had the privilege of visiting the Druze in the region of Chouf, Lebanon. Such a fascinating religion! They believe in the Quran and Muhammad, but also in reincarnation. Some Druze consider themselves Muslims as a way to not draw attention to themselves (understanble, since the Druze have a long history of persecution by the Sunni), but their teachings would be considered heretical by other Islamic sects. The Druze only marry other Druze, and no outsider can convert into the religion.

    It's important to note that, while us Sunnis still venerate the descendants of the prophet, we understand that only the Prophet PHUH himself was infallible, and everyone else is prone to mistakes, like the rest of his grandchildren and descendants. We believe in anything that was transmitted through either many of the companions or from one very trusted member of the companions. Therefore, any of his descendents' teachings that go against the Hadith are disregarded, as it is logical that those who knew the prophet better were more accurate sources than those who have never met him.

      The 12ver Shi’ite Imams were not Rationalist (believers of Ijtihad and Ilm-Al-Kalam), rather they were traditionalist, hence they did not give personal Fatwas on the basis of opinion like the Sunni Imams (i.e Abu Hanifa), they only relied on what was transmitted to them through their forefathers until it reached the Prophet pbuh. Also three of the 12ver Shi’ites had personally met the prophet pbuh (Ali, Hasan, and Husayn), so what the later Imams dictated was based on what these three earlier Imams transmitted to them from the prophet pbuh. And because Ali, Hasan and Husain were not only close companions but also blood relatives who lived in the same house of prophet hence if any teaching of a sahaba which goes against what was transmitted from the prophet from these individuals is abandoned, as it is unreasonable to follow that which contradicts what is most reliably transmitted from the prophet pbuh. Because the Sahaba were not infallible but could make mistakes in matters of Haram and Halal unlike the infallible imams who never sinned.

      After William? So that means keeping it in the Normandy dynasty. Impossible, the male line ends thanks to the deaths of William’s male line grandsons. The next dynasty to hold the title King of England is Stephen of Blois. His modern male line heir can’t be found, since the line of the House of Blois ended with Joan of Navarre.
      The male line Plantagenets have gone extinct ruling them out. Same for the Tudors. Next are the Stuarts. They still exist.

    Good video. I as a Sunni agree with most of the points. However, just to add, only the Zaydi Shias respect the first three caliphs; Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman. The rest of the Shias reject them.
    Also to add, the (non-Zaydi) Shias believe in Taqiyya, hiding their true faith in public, acting like Sunnis. They believe that the 12 Imams themselves (who are highly venerated in Sunni Islam as well) also practised Taqiyya. This is why we can find quotations of the Imams both praising Abu Bakr and Umar in one narration, but cūrsing them in another.
    Yes, Taqiyya do exist in Sunni Islam, but only when thrēatēned. But since the Shias claim that the Imams were thrēatēned their entire life, they practised Taqiyya throughout their lives.
    God knows best.

      Actually it is the opposite, the pope is elected by the high officials of the Church, similar to how the early Sunni Caliphs were elected, where as the Twelever Shi’ite Imams are believed to be chosen by God Himself through the Holy Prophet PBUH. However the Ismaili and Zaydiyyah are comparable to sunnis in their caliphate system, they don’t believe their Caliphs/Leaders are chosen by God. And the Twelever Shias don’t believe that the Imam declares matters of permissibility and impermissibility on the basis of opinions unlike sunnis who believe that the Imams amongst the Sahabas and Salaf can pass fatwas on basis of opinion, much like the pope can.

      @@Therock151214 The Pope, according to catholics, do not declare doctrine on the basis of mere opinion. Catholics believe that the Pope is literally the spiritual descendant of the apostle Peter, who in turn were declared the head of the christian church by Jesus himself in the Gospel of Matthew 16:18-19:
      "And I [Jesus] tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. *I will give you [Peter] the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven,* and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”
      This literally fits the definition of "being chosen by God" to establish religious doctrine, and according to Catholics the Pope is the last elected descendant of Peter as the bishop of Rome; therefore the Pope receives, according to catholics, all the authority previously given to Peter by Jesus. There literally exists a catholic doctrine called "papal infallibility", which functions *almost exactly the same* as the "Imam infallibility" of Shia islam. Shia islam is MUCH more similar to catholisism, compared to Sunni islam. The only big difference, apart from the obvious fact that one is a muslim religion and the other is a christian religion, is that the current Imam is supposedly in "occultation" while the current Pope is not in occultation.
      Shias are more similar to catholic christians, Sunnis are more similar to eastern orthodox christians, and Quranists (who follow the principle of "Quran alone" without hadith) are more similar to protestant christians (who follow the principle of "sola scriptura" without traditions that are outside of the Bible itself).

Furthermore according to both Sunni and Catholics the Caliph/Pope can abdicate (leave his official position), and he will seize to be the Caliph/Pope, In Twelever Shia Islam, once an Imam becomes an Imam, he occupies that position for life and can’t ‘truly abdicate’ as he is chosen by Allah through revelation, even if he loses the physical Rulership of the Muslim Lands, he is still considered the rightful Leader/Caliph of the Muslims in Twelever Theology.
