The Muslim world, with its rich tapestry of cultures, histories, and geopolitical interests, has been a theater of rivalries between nations and factions. The deep-seated Shia-Sunni divide, originating from a theological schism in early Islam, manifests today in the power play between Iran (Shia-majority) and Saudi Arabia (Sunni-majority). This rivalry extends to proxy conflicts, like those in Yemen and Syria. Additionally, the quest for regional dominance has led to tensions, such as the competition between Turkey and Saudi Arabia for leadership in the Sunni world. Various non-state actors, aligned either religiously or geopolitically, further complicate the landscape. Notably, groups like Hezbollah and Hamas, backed by state actors, play significant roles in regional geopolitics. These dynamics collectively shape the intricate and ever-evolving relations in the Muslim world.
