The exploration of the enduring Sunni-Shia divide reveals its roots in the events following the death of Prophet Muhammad, including the sidelining of his son Ali and the tragedy of Husayn at Kerbala. This historical narrative spans from the early caliphates through the rise of empires to the present-day Middle East, highlighting the complex interplay of religious, ethnic, and national identities. The author offers a unique perspective on the region's dynamics, shaped by historical events and the Iranian Revolution, fostering deep empathy and understanding of contemporary conflicts.
