The orthodox group is called Sonnites or Traditionists because they acknowledge the Sonna, a collection of moral traditions of the prophet's sayings and actions, as a supplement to the Koran; it is said to answer in name and design to the Mishna of the Jews.
The Sonna is described as a collection of prophetic traditions that supplements the Koran by directing observances omitted from that book.
