What two groups did Muslims divide into?
Answer 1
1. Ahl-i-Sunnat wal Jama'at
2. Shiya
Shia adherents and sunnies have the same basic belief except a few minor differences. The Shias claim that instead of first three Rightful Caliphs, the fourth Rightful Caliph Hazrat Ali (RAU) should have been chosen the First Caliph. The other differences are the creation of later people. The Sunni and Shia scholars have joined hands and sat together to solve the problems amicably. They have decided to tolerate each other and to avoid highlighting such matters as create hatred and enmity. May Allah Karim bless us with tolerance of all riligions and all humans! A'meen
Answer 2
The basic two groups are Sunni and Shiites Muslims. However, it is to be recognized that the differences between these two groups are minor and side differences. The basic Islam beliefs are the same for Islamic groups or schools as well as they have the same holy book Qur'an, they have the same ritual worships of praying, fasting, pilgrimage (or Hajj), same direction when praying. It is to be emphasized that the persuasion of the west to deepen differences between Islamic different schools and agitate conflicts among them to help in implementing their policies of the creative disturbance will never succeed. The differences among Islamic schools are never the same as the Christian different denominations and sects.
sunnite Muslims, and shiite Muslims
___________________________________________________________
Sunnis and Shiites. They are just to Islamic schools that differ in minor issues. The outsiders are trying to feed up assumed differences and conflicts between Muslim groups to gain control on Muslim countries and on their resources. The two main groups are Sunnis and Shiites. Both groups agree upon basic Islam pillars, believe in same and only version of Quran, believe and follow the sunnah of same prophet (PBUH), pray to same direction (facing Kaba in Makkah or Mecca in Saudi Arabia, go to same places on pilgrimage (or Hajj), and adhere to same Islam morals and ritual worships. They only differed on some side issues that are not critical.

What did Hindus do to the quran?
Hindus do a number of things with the Qur'an including reading it, ignoring it, or opposing the violence that plagues Indian societies because of the divisions between monotheists and polytheists in the Qur'an.
As for what Jews think, Jews think a wide variety of things, but I have yet to meet a Jew who actively thinks about what Hindus might or might not do with a Qur'an.

How does physical geography have a influence on human geography in India?
Often on islands and separate sides of mountains different cultures will develop. Also, sometimes in a peninsula a civilization may exist but not influence the outer areas. Also, an area of desert may have a culture that values water more than the sun, but a damp, jungle's natives will proabably value the sun or the forest more. It is mostly to do with physcial borders.

It is not logic for an angel to force a prophet to the ground three times. The angel Gabriel hugged the prophet strongly three times and the prophet was exhausted and scared.
When back to his wife Khadija, they talked to her cousin Waraqah (who was Christian) and he told him that It was the angel who hugged him and that
Kindly, refer to related questions below.
Answer B:God never spoke to Mohammad. Mohammad had a strange experience at the cave of Hira while he was sleeping. A spirit appeared to him and forced him three times to the ground so that Mohammad thought he was visited by an evil spirit and going to die. This spirit made him recite the first verses of Quran (found in the 96 chapter of the modern day Quran). The fearful Mohammad went to his wife Kadijah and told her to cover him up and she covered him until his fear was over. Then she took him to her cousin Waraqah and he told Mohammad that it was an angel of God who appeared to him. After this incident Mohammad had suicidal thoughts. Later, Mohammad claimed that when he was on the way to a mountain to throw himself down to commit suicide a voice was heard, "You are the messenger of Allah and l am Gabriel." When this incident was told to Kadijah she told him, "I swear by Allah that you are a Messenger for this nation." One thing to notice here is that the spirit appeared to Mohammad is not the Gabriel who appeared in the Biblical incidents. Two main reasons for this is that: 1) when Gabriel appeared to Biblical personalities they were not terrified or had suicidal attempt after the incident as Mohammad did and 2) Mohammad's later revelations were contradictory to Biblical messages came through Gabriel (Example: Gabriel told Daniel that Messiah would die for others and Gabriel told Mary that Jesus would be called the Son of God).Answer C (comments on Answer B above):
God never spoke directly to any of His prophets except through an angel. The only exceptions are God direct talk to prophet Moses (without being shown to Moses) and God direct talk to prophet Muhammad during the prophet miracle called "Alisraa&Miiraj".
Prophet Muhammad was not sleeping in the cave when the Angel Gabriel talked to him. He was meditating and worshiping God the same way was prophet Abraham doing.
When prophet Muhammad returned back home, he was heavily sweating and his wife Khadija talked to her cousin Waraqah (he was prophet Jesus believer -and was deeply familiar with the God holy books) who told him that he was visited by the angel and he will be the prophet of this nation and that if he (Waraqa) will be alive until then he (Waraqa) will be the first to defend his message.
Prophet Muhammad never thought of committing suicide. It is a crystal clear lie. He was faithful even before being assigned by God to call for Islam.
The proofs claimed above that It was not the angel Gabriel are not correct for two reasons: First: The current readable God holy book texts are not reflecting real God words revelations to His prophets as Quran. They were written by more than one man and over hundreds of years after death of Jesus (Peace be upon him) and not in the original revelation language. So, no one knows the real feelings of other prophets when met with the angels. Second: One can read in the proofs that Quran is a real God word revelations to prophet Muhammad to believe that Quran was revealed to him by the angel Gabriel and in its current Arabic language without single letter change. This explains why many famous Christian priests and Jewish religious people and others converted to Islam.
Muslims can eat turkey. They, however, can not eat pork and drink alcohol. Most Muslims don't celebrate traditional American holidays.

Why doesn't Ramadan fall at the same time every year?
The Muslim calendar is based on the lunar calendar and it does not have any leap years. The Lunar calendar is shorter than the Solar calendar and therefore the Muslim calendar falls out at a different point in the Solar calendar every year.
What are the motives behind Arab expansion?
The Arabs could expand and they perceived that doing this was their duty as pious Muslims.
Historically, there was the "Right to Conquest" which was a pervasive idea in political thought. The idea was that it was natural for any country or state to grow and control more territory as it grew stronger. This allowed weaker states to dissolve in place of ones that were better run, a bureaucratic version of "survival of the fittest". The "Right to Conquest" prevailed as the dominant theory of nation-building until the mid-1800s when people started bringing up the concept of self-sovereignty and ethnic nationalism, which held the idea that people should govern themselves even if they are not the most powerful in the world. This view of state sovereignty has become dominant today and the Right to Conquest is seen as incorrect.
Since the Arab Caliphates existed well within the Right to Conquest Period, the Arabs did not have to assert a reason to conquer neighboring territories in Southwest Asia. It was their natural prerogative.
Where in Quran the word Ramadan is mentioned?
Sura Baqra -2 where Fasting have been declared obligatory.
How long did it take for the holy quraan to be revealed?

Does the Qur'an have commandments?
No, Quran does not have the ten commandments as in the holy Bible. The Holy Bible has ten commandments in two places and in each case these ten commandments are written in order starting from the first to the last commandment. These are found in the Book of Exodus (20:2-17) and in the book of Deuteronomy (5:6-21).
Ten commandments are unique in the sense that it is the only Scripture portion directly written by God on tablets (Exo 34:1, Deut 10:2).
Is zaboor the first holy book of Islam?

Who is the main subject of the holy quran?
A call for the whole mankind to respond to God's message which was repeatedly conveyed by all of the prophets through history & finally by the last prophet Muhammad pbuh.

What does quran say about doing business?

This is the supreme book of the jurisprudence of Islaam for the Shi'a Isla'ili Taiyebi sect. Man is encouraged to earn his livelihood by doing hard work and sustain his family.
Main teachings of ayat-al kursi?
AYATUL KURSI
This ayah should be memorised and read once after every Fardh salaah and also before sleeping:
In the Name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful. Allah! There is no God but He, the Living; The Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him nor sleep. His are all things in the heavens and on earth. Who is there that can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth? He knoweth what (appeareth to His creatures as) before or after or behind them. Nor shall they compass aught of His knowledge except as he Willeth. His Throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth, and He feeleth no fatigue in guarding and preserving them for He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory).
(Al Qur'an. Sura: Al-Baqrah-2. Verse: 255)
