Shia
This term identifies a specific theological and political identity within Islam. It carries a strong sense of lineage and spiritual succession, centering on the belief in the divine right of the Ahl al-Bayt. In geopolitical contexts, it often appears in contrast to Sunni, reflecting a historical and continuing sectarian division.
As a noun, the word refers to an individual adherent. When used as an adjective, it modifies religious practices, legal schools, or cultural artifacts. Because it is a proper noun derived from a specific religious tradition, it is always capitalized regardless of its position in a sentence.
