The sunni and the shia are two different branches of Islam. They had the same belief at one point, but then the beliefs changed. Some differencess are, sunnis believe everything in the ocean is halal (halal means clean for Muslims to eat) while shias eat no shelled fish (except for shrimp) or fish without scales. Sunnis cross their arms while praying, shias keep their arms at their sides. Sunnis believe abu bakar was the first caliph after prophet muhammud, shias believe imam ali ( they believe he's prophet muhammud's successor) was the first caliph.
