How Many Shi’ite Sects are there?

In the Encyclopedia ‘Dairatul Ma’arif’ it is mentioned: ‘Many Shi’ite sects appeared, the number has far exceeded the 73 known sects that splintered away from Islam.’[1]

The Rafidhi Meer Baqir ad-Damaad, said, ‘all the 73 sects mentioned in the Hadeeth are in relation to the Shi’ite sects and the successful one is the Imamate sect.’[2]

Al-Maqrizi mentioned that the Shi’ite sects are more than 300.[3]

Ash-Shihrastani said: ‘The Rejectionists can be categorized into five groups: al-Kaisaniyah, Az-Zaidiyah, Imamiyah, al-Ghaliyah, and Ismailiyah.’[4]  

Al-Baghdadi said: ‘The Rejectionists after Ali (t) divided into four groups: Zaidiyah, Imamiyah, Kaisaniyah and Ghulaat.’[5]

It should be noted that the only group among the Zaidiyah that are considered Rawaafidh are the Jaroodiyah sect.
