Question:

What word do some Muslims use to insult fellow Muslims they see as misguided? - An inquiry into derogatory terms Muslims use against each other, often tied to sectarianism or accusations of shirk. :::

Answer:

There may be infinite number of negative characteristics in followers of any religion and the focus should be more on what is mentioned in the scriptures which is the truth and which is finite in my humble opinion.

The Quran says, “O you who believe, let not people laugh at people, for they may be better than them, nor let women laugh at women, as they may be better than them. Do not find fault with your own people, nor call one another by nick-names. Evil is a bad name after faith, whoever changes not is one of the wicked”.

Al-Hujurat (The Apartments) verse 11.
