Ibadhi-Sunni Comparison |
 | | The general source in the Ibadhi ideology is the complete elimination of anthropomorphic elements from the conception of deity and all that may suppose comparison among the Quranic revelations or prophetic traditions should be interpreted to suit the position and should lead to comparison. |
 | | The Ibadhis considered their movement a continuations of the opposition which overthrew 'Uthman and caused his death, their opposition to him being a purely Islamic rejection of the innovations which he introduced. |
 | | The Ibadhis aim was to keep to the example set by the Prophet, peace be upon him, his two successors (Abu Bakr and 'Umar) and the upright Companions, and to re-establish the Muslim society on the same lines as the first Muslim community. |
