Abstract


The study of Shiism is essential, as its existence encompasses not only historical and political dimensions but also influences the dynamics of inter-sectarian relations within the Islamic world. A comprehensive understanding of the history and development of Shiism is expected to enrich Islamic discourse and foster tolerance among Muslims. This research employs a library research method, utilizing various written sources to collect relevant data and information. The collected data were analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that the peak of Shia development occurred during the medieval period when the Safavid dynasty established Shiism as the official school of thought in Iran. Its influence further expanded following the 1979 Islamic Revolution, which inspired a broader revival of Islamic consciousness worldwide. To this day, Shiism remains an integral part of the Muslim community, with followers distributed across various regions. Although differences between Sunni and Shia groups continue to cause tension in some areas, ongoing efforts in dialogue and the spirit of ukhuwah Islamiyah (Islamic brotherhood) are continuously promoted to foster unity among Muslims on the basis of faith and humanity.
