Options for the title of your opinion essays

The title of your opinion essay should be intriguing and appealing, for example: “Death penalty - a fair punishment or a great sin”, “The key to success in the market”, etc.
 
Introducing the topic of your opinion essay
 
Your opinion essay introduction should be as intriguing as your title. The worst way to start your opinion essay is to write: “In my opinion essay I am going to tell you…”, “In the introduction I would like to introduce my topic…” The best way to start your opinion essay is to state an interesting general statement directly related to the issue, or to place a rhetorical question for your reader as the first sentence of the paper, or simply present your topic by telling a story, an anecdote.

Shia-Sunni Relations in the Essay on Muslim Unity

Posted on April 25th, 2008

126.pngActually, the term “Muslim unity” is rather general and means the establishment of the brotherly relations between various Islamic denominations. So, your essay on Muslim unity can be devoted to one of these denominations or to the relations between several of them. This is exactly what we will do while proposing a topic for your essays on Muslim unity.
 
We are going to give you some facts about rather complicated relations between Sunni and Shia. But first, we would like to tell you that your essay on Muslim unity can disclose some other aspects like Caliphate. It is a kind of federalism between Muslim nations, and can also be described as a form of political unity.
 
So, let us return to Shia-Sunni relations that you may study in your essay on Muslim unity.

  • The first thing you should explain in your essay on Muslim unity is that Shia (or Shiite) and Sunni are the main denominations of Islam. Sunni constitute 85% of the total amount of Muslims in the world; Shia – 15 %. Mostly, Shias live in Iran, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Bahrain and Lebanon. Sunnis live in South Asia, China, Africa and the rest of the Islamic world.
  • In the essay on Muslim unity you should definitely tell about the main differences between Shia and Sunni and the reasons for that. Actually, the split between these two denominations occurred after the death of the Prophet Muhammad in the year 632. The main disputes were focused around the successor of the Prophet. Sunnis believe that the rightful successor of Muhammad is Abu Bakr – his closest friend. Shias believe that Muhammad appointed Ali – his cousin and son-in-law to be the next caliph, and his direct descendants are the successors of the Prophet.
  • Another difference between Shia and Sunni that can be described in your essay on Muslim unity is the opposite views on the nature of Mahdi (in a few words, a redeemer of Islam). In the essay on Muslim unity you can tell that Shias believe that Mahdi will come on earth at the end of times and will bring perfect Islamic society on earth. Sunnis believe that Mahdi will have a name Muhammad and will be a descendant of the Prophet. Mahdi will come to revive the faith, but this can happen not necessarily at the end of times.
  • Some differences in practices should also be described in your essay on Muslim unity. You can tell about Selah (ritual prayer) and describe the dissimilarities in how Sunni and Shia hold their hands, prostrate and how many times a day they pray. In your essay on Muslim unity you can also tell about Mutah, temporary marriage, which is common for Shia and is not accepted by Sunni. Do not forget to mention the dissimilarities in clothes and in the process of giving names.
