There are many Muslim sects. However, all sects agree on the basic Islam pillars and principles. All of them recite the same Quran with the same exact text without single letter change. All of them pray in the same mosques. They differ only in some minor and philosophical issues. The main two sects or schools are Shiites and Sunnis. Refer to related question for more information.
