2) Adalah (Justice). Belief that God is just.

3) Nubuwwah (Prophethood). Belief in the Messengers of Islam, starting from Adam, till Muhammad.

4) Imamah (Leadership). Belief in the divinely appointed leaders, especially, 12 aimmah (imams) in succession to Prophet Muhammad, starting with Ali, Hasan and Hussain, till the awaited Mahdi.

5) Maad (Hereafter). Belief in the resurrection, and concepts such as Paradise and Hell.

The believers of oneness of God, Prophethood (Muhammad as its seal) and Hereafter are called Muslims. And those who believe in the succession of 12 imams are the Prophet are called shia/shiite Muslims.
