Following the demise of the Holy Prophet (s), intellectual and ideological distinctions between Shi‘as and Sunnis prompted jurisprudential differences among them. These differences existed between the two groups for a long time and they continue to this day. The purpose of this study is to take a brief overview at some of the jurisprudential differences between Shia‘s and Sunnis in matters such as wudu (ablution), adhān (the call to prayer), prayer, khums, Tawāf al-Nisā, and fasting. By examining the evidence from both sides concerning each matter, it is possible to conclude that the Shi‘a view in the issues is closer to God’s true verdict.
