    False

    Explanation:

    Shia Islam is the second largest branch of Islam (after Sunni Islam). Shia Muslims believed that Caliphs had to be related to Muhammad. Moreover, Shia Muslims adhere to both the teachings of Muhammad and those of his family or descendants (Shia Imams). They consider Muhammad's descendants to be the true source of guidance.
