The Sunni is the largest denomination of Islam, embracing almost 85-90% of the world's Muslim community. The name is derived from Sunnah, the exemplary behavior of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).

The Sunnis fallow Quran, Sunnah (practices of Prophet Mohammad PBUH) and Hadith (sayings of Prophet Mohammad PBUH). They fallow exactly the same Monotheistic Islam as preached by Prophet Mohammad PBUH and so called themselves as Orthodox Muslims. They do not accept alteration of Islam owning to modernism and globalization.
