There are denominations of Islam, Sunni and Shia. Then depending how you look at it a lot of smaller ones within those that incorporate local pre-islamic superstition and whatever religion they followed before.
Also in that list, the athiest/agnotstic/etc one, that may be higher than actuality if it is basing much of those numbers on the official count by the Chinese government of its own citizens who they consider to be athiest if they are religious but don't follow a state approved religion which many of them do not. If I recall correctly that's what was supposedly inflating those athiest numbers before. I believe the percentage of stupid people in the human race is far too high to allow for that many non-fearful non-believers.
