Which is the right path shia or sunni in the light of quran Allah and prophet teachings?
Whenever one is trying to find the right path, one must look at the source of the faith. And the sources of Islam are the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad (pbuh) and the Revelation that was revealed to him, the Quran.
The Shia sect of Islam originated many years after the Prophet died. The Shia sect is a division caused merely by political differences of who should rule the Islamic State after the Prophet's death, which does not relate or affect ones inner faith and belief in God.
The right path is clear if one looks back at the the Quran and the Prophet's teachings, which can be found in the many books of "Hadith".
What is Sacred language for Islamic religion?
The Quran, Muslims holy book, was revealed in Arabic by God to prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
What region was not conquered by the Muslims?
The Muslims took a lot of territory during the Crusades. However they never conquered Gaul, which is now part of France, and that stopped them from progressing into Europe.
Answer: The "Night jorney" and "Acsention" came at a time when Muslims were being treated with extreme harshness. They had been confined to a valley on the outskirts of Mecca. No one was allowed to do business with them, nor intermarry, nor anything else. In that year, Muhammad lost his two closest loved ones: his wife of twenty-five years, Khadijah, and his uncle, Abu Talib. He did not know what would become of his message. It was called "the year of sorrow". In order for God to reaffirm His help, and reassure him, Muhammad was woken up one night and directed to mount a being (described as a horse, but obviously not of this world). This creature took him swiftly from Mecca to Jerusalem. From there, Muhammad ascended to heaven. He met with the Prophets who came before him and led them all in prayer ( since he is the final Prophet - the awaited Messenger of the Covenant [you can Google "Muhammad in the Bible]). Then he was shown the people who would be in Heaven and Hell, and he received the commandment for the five daily prayers. This was all a strengthening of his heart - and a guarantee that his mission would, in fact, be successful. www.freequran.org

In Islam, there are many prophets (some sources say as many as 124,000), since the word "prophet" refers to someone who was sent by Allah (God) to teach a message of righteousness. Muslims believe that all the prophets mentioned in the Hebrew Bible (including Moses and Abraham) were divinely inspired, and they also believe that Jesus, in the New Testament, was a prophet. But although there is great respect for the prophets in the Old and New Testament, Muslims believe that the prophet Muhammad is the last and the greatest of all the prophets.

Arkaans is an Arabic word that means pillars. The pillars of Islam are five pillars according to the saying (hadith) of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Islam is based on five pillars which the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has explained for us, when he said: "Islam is built upon five [pillars]: the testimony that there is no god but Allaah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; establishing regular prayer (salaah); paying the zakaah; Hajj (pilgrimage) and fasting Ramadaan." (Agreed upon; narrated by al-Bukhaari, no. 8). All Muslims; irrelevant to their schools; stick to these pillars. Refer to related question below.

Prophet Muhammad (saw) was the walking quran because Allah would send 10 ayahs with Angel Jibreel to the prophet and the prophet would give it to the sahabi. The sahabi would memorize it write it and live by the meanings. That means if it talks about praying right and doing good things they'd do it. The prophet Muhammad (saw) was a man of mercy and kindness and never disobeyed Allah. And to me the prophet Muhammad (saw) must have been the most amazing an in the world.
