Islamic Denominations (Historical Religions)

i agree with shia & ibadi symbols but not with sunni, pls put Allah there bcs its most aproppriate the moon & crescent was being used commonly bcs of ottomans or the shahada

Ra Horakhti,

No, only the late mutazlites were incorporated into sunnism.

Mutazilism was NEVER sunni, on the contrary, they regarded sunnism as heretic.


Ok these are the major islamic sects in history together with a description of their tendency in thought:



1 Sunnism split into:

Hanafism (legalistic pragmatic)
Shafiism (legalistic dogmatic)
Malikism (legalistic traditionalist)
Hanbalism (legalistic scripturalist)

2 Shiism split into:

Ja'farism (legalistic pragmatic)
Ismailism (messianic idealistic)
Alevitism (sectarian idealistic)

3 Mutazilism (rationalistic)

4 Kharijism (rationalist anarchistic)

5 Ibadism (rationalist traditionalistic)

6 Murji'ism (pragmatic rationalistic)

@Birdy

I have never tested it myself, but I have been told that my religion mods work with the CP.

Faysal, Mu'tazila were Hanafi Sunnis.

where is the hanefi's??

The sword is much more representative of the Alawites, and not Shia in particular, maybe the al-quds would be a better symbol for shia?

that is correct tomatekh :) but u should really really really increase the non-sunni non-shia extinct Mutazilite sect!

These rationalists, and NOT the sunni/shia, were responsible for islams golden age!

I purposefully did not include Sufism, as it’s not really a separate denomination but more an esoteric tract within the religion. There are Shia Sufis, Sunni Sufis, etc.

I believe you forgot Sufism!

It’s in the steam install files, not the mod. I suggest keeping a backup of the original file if you intend to edit it.
