>>17692086You are just unfamiliar with the categories involved.
The vast majority of words here aren't actually Islamic denominations. This list combines several different things.
I'll try to clear up as much as I can.
>SunniOne of two* rough Branches of Islam, Makes up the vast majority of muslims. Defining brea from the Shia IIRC involves a succesion issue in the Rashidun caliphate involving Ali.
>Hanafi>Maliki>Shafi'i>HanbaliThese are schools of Sunni Islamic Jurisprudence, all four of these schools exist under the umbrella of Sunni Islam but have differing opinions on Islamic law and how to correctly follow it.
>Zahiri>Maturidism>Ash'arism>AtharismThese are all schools of Islamic Theology. Though I don't actually now what they differ in. Zahiri and Mu'tazili are extinct IIRC.
>Wahhabi/SalafiSpecific branch of Hanbalism that is very purist and fundamentalist.
>Dawat-e-IslamiNo idea.
>Deobandi>BarelviCuldn't tell you for sure but these seem like Offshoots of some sort.
>Twelver ShiaLargest sect of Shia Islam, Majority of Muslims in Iran, Azerbajian, and Iraq.
>Ja'fariSchool of Shia Jurisprudence most popular among Twelvers (aka, in Iran).
>Nizari Ismaili>Musta'li IsmailiThe two largest types of Ismaelite muslim. They split from eachother after a succession dispute in the Fatimid Caliphate I think.
>ZaydiThe type of Shiism the follow in Yemen, iirc.
>AlevismTurkish sect that is kind of Shia, but also kind of sufi influenced.
