I had planned to save these topics for another thread but I think now, considering how these viewpoints & misconceptions in this thread have been circulating among some hostile muslim Kurds online to undermine Ezidis, it would be a good time to address them. [Mega Thread]

It is with great honor & enthusiasm that I announce my contribution to @EzidiHeritage as the author of a newly published article that sheds light on the Qewl genre of Ezidi sacred texts & their role in Ezidi religion. ez-h.org/qewls
Delegation of Zoroastrians and Yarsanis attending the Tiwafa Kerecal feast of the Ezidi Qayidî tribe on Mount Sina.
I will refrain from commenting on the notion that Ezidism emerged from Islam, as it has been disproven by credible academic studies. However, despite what modern sources claim, there are very few, if any at all, primary sources attesting Şîxadî's Arab ethnicity. [Thread]
Over the years, I have observed many people online disputing the validity of the term "Êzîdxan" or even denying its existence, sometimes due to animosity towards us or for ideological motivations. Nonetheless, it is irrefutable that the term has a historical existence. [Thread]

(1/7)
@BaedriKurd @HimdadaMustafa You people need to take a shower and learn from what IS did to you🤮
I had planned to save these topics for another thread but I think now, considering how these viewpoints & misconceptions in this thread have been circulating among some hostile muslim Kurds online to undermine Ezidis, it would be a good time to address them. [Mega Thread]
Another point mentioned in the thread is that Şîxadî was a "Sufi Arab" who "founded" Ezidism. This is a highly controversial topic but there's in fact very little evidence that Şîxadî was an Arab. This claim seems to be baseless & have stemmed (6/22) x.com/BKurdiD/status…
3. The proof is the founder of the Yezidism of today is no other then the Sufi Muslim Sheikh Adi Bin Musafir who was born in Al-sham in the 12th-century and who’s linage is Arab, tracing it back to Marwan Bin hakam the Umayyad ruler. Subsequently Adi has Al-Umawi in his name.
Starting in the 1970s, the Welatşêx attire gave way to the trendier modern Kurdish clothing. It became predominantly associated with the elderly & the clergy. Recently, there's been a resurgence in its popularity & are now worn by young Ezidis too at religious feasts.

I extend my thanks & gratitude to @BaedriKurd for his invaluable help in reviewing the article & offering me valuable assistance with sources and information. His expertise was instrumental in shaping this piece.
It is with great honor & enthusiasm that I announce my contribution to @EzidiHeritage as the author of a newly published article that sheds light on the Qewl genre of Ezidi sacred texts & their role in Ezidi religion. ez-h.org/qewls
I will refrain from commenting on the notion that Ezidism emerged from Islam, as it has been disproven by credible academic studies. However, despite what modern sources claim, there are very few, if any at all, primary sources attesting Şîxadî's Arab ethnicity. [Thread]
"Êzîdxan" simply refers to all territories populated by Ezidis & under the jurisdiction of Ezidi religious authority, and is sometimes used as a collective term for the Ezidi community.
The term "Êzîdxan" should not be taken as an indication of any division between the Ezidis and Kurds or Kurdistan, much like how the term "Lakestan" does not imply separation of "Laks" from Kurds, or "Yaristan" and Yarsanis, or "Hewraman" and "Hewramis", etc.
We also find the term "Êzîdxan" in Ezidi sacred texts, for example in Qewlê Miskîn Tajdîn: "My salutations to Meqlub, to Mergeh (i.e Lalish), To Laliş, Lord of the Cupola, In the land of Êzîdxan, Where worship & prayer is performed"
A traveller in 1848 atrributes "Êzîdxan" to the plains north of Mount Maqlub, overlooking the twin towns Bashiqa & Bahzani and located inbetween the Ezidi stronghold of Şêxan & Mosul. In same source we find that "Plains of Êzîdxan" refers to Şêxan region, where Baedrê is located.
we see that this term is attributed to a specific region north of Lake Van. In another map from a mid 19th-century traveller report, we see that this term is attributed to a river in Xerzan, located in today's Siirt province of Bakur.
This belief that it is a newly coined term is unfounded & stems from a lack of knowledge about the Ezidis. Many maps from previous centuries mention Êzîdxan in maps. As an example, in the first map from 1724 & the second one by Ottens, Reinier (1698-1750),
Over the years, I have observed many people online disputing the validity of the term "Êzîdxan" or even denying its existence, sometimes due to animosity towards us or for ideological motivations. Nonetheless, it is irrefutable that the term has a historical existence. [Thread]

To "pray" in front of a #Ezidi temple for its destruction is a new level of shame. These individuals travel thousands of miles to exploit a genocide-torn people. An absolute disgrace for the authorities in the region, who have stood idly by & watched this going on for years.
That’s how we celebrated the Ezidi New Year at the Lalish temple, it’s considered the holiest place with us.
are they still allowed to do this very harmful stuff? praying in front of a #yezidi temple is bad to begin with, but after an actual genocide happened? pure white supremacy. kick them out, now. also to protect local christians, who would never even consider doing this. #kurdistan
