The word "denomination" applies specifically to Christianity and does not have an analog in Islam. In Islam there are sects and within sects there are schools. On separate axes, Muslims self-divide along questions of religiosity (liberal to extremist), political affiliation (secularist to islamist), and orthodoxy (jurisprudential to mystical).

There are three major sects (Sunni, Shiite, and Ibadi) and around a dozen schools. These should be multiplied by the other axes and divisions.
