Answer:

-both claimed to be divinely inspired

-both placed emphasis on religious purification

-each sought to establish states on Islamic precepts

Step-by-step explanation:

Different from the separation of church and state that imitated by western countries, both of these movement actually advocated to implementing islamic teachings to the laws that created by the government.

Both of them claimed to be inspired by mandate from the God and really oppose the government officials that were backed by the government from western nations (including soviet union and united states)
