Bangladesh government refuses 'Al Quds Day'

Actually, what are the main differences between Shia and Sunni?

And what is our problem if they are different from us?

We should understand and respect each other as Muslim.

I hate this thing. Division. Indian muslims are divided into Sufi and Barlevi. Idiots... Luckily almost all of the Bangladeshis do not care about this sects.

The majority of Muslims in Bangladesh are Sunni, who mainly follow the Hanafi school of thought (madh'hab). The main groups include the Deobandi movement which many are part of the Tablighi Jamaat. The Bishwa Ijtema (World Congregation) is an event held annually by Tablighi Jamaat which focuses on prayers and meditation, attracting 5 million people from across Bangladesh and South Asia. There are large followers of Sufi-influenced groups such as the Barelvi movement. A group which has a large following is the Fultali, based on the teachings of late Saheb Qibla Fultali. The Jamaat-e-Islami is a political religious party, which is one of the largest Islamic party in Bangladesh.

The Ahle Hadith (or the Salafi) is a movement which follows a strict interpretation of the Qur'an and Sunnah, without following a madh'hab. There are about 27.5 million followers, mainly in areas of Rajshahi and Khulna.There are three main groups of Ahle Hadith, the majority are part of the Ahle Hadith Andolon Bangladesh (AHAB), led by Muhammad Asadullah Al-Ghalib. The other groups are the Jamiyate Ahle Hadith, and the Ahle Hadith Tablig-e-Islam. There are 600 Ahle Hadith mosques, and 5 madrassas in the country.

There are also few people who are Ahmadiyya and Shi'a Muslims. The Shi'a observance commemorating the martyrdom of Ali's sons, Hasan and Husayn, are still widely observed by the nation's Sunnis, even though there are small numbers of Shi'as. The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, which is claimed to be non-Muslim by mainstream Muslim leaders, is estimated to be around 100,000, the community has faced discrimination because of their belief and have been persecuted in some areas.
