Zoroastrian Kurds?

[edit]

Zoroastrian Kurds in Armenia doesn't sound right. Is this meant to refer to the Yezidis? Khorshid 08:00, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article says Islam was forced onto Armenians, but they never converted. This is not true. Arabs, Muslims ruled Armenian region for over 1000 years, but according to this article, despite using all kinds of force, they failed to convert the Armenians ?. Its simply not true.

It simply is true, go do some research man, if it is not true than why is Armenia like 99.8% Christian right now, and the diaspora is all Christian. The only Armenians I've heard of convert to Islam were young Armenian children during the Armenian Genocide, they converted to Islam to be saved from the Turks, and before that young Armenian boys in the Ottoman Empire were converted into Islam and were made janissaries. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.174.192.171 (talk) 04:02, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Its utter ridiculous to claim that after 1000's of years of full fledged power, Arabs/Turks failed to convert Armenians to Muslims. I guess then the same logic applies to Lebanon, Syria and many other countries where there's significant Arab Christian minority. The Armenian Genocide has nothing to do with here, that was a political act, many Armenians fled and settled in Arab lands including Syria which is dominantly Muslim country.
I expect some heavy vandalism in the near future by the Armenian activists to this page as they have done to many other wiki pages: There is no impartial evidence that proves Armenians were subject to devshirmah system - janissaries, as almost all Ottoman historians agree that they were chosen from Europe. Despite all kinds of force, they failed to convert the Armenians? This was because of the tolerance of the Turks, they were not only given their religous freedom, their bishops were hosted in Istanbul, as the head of the Armenian court and law. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.109.98.30 (talk) 06:52, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Definitely, ignore hardcore Armenian nationalists in this case. Armenians and Greeks enjoyed religious freedom during Ottoman Era, which Armenians couldn't, under Russian rule. Even after Turkish Republic was founded, they were one of the 3 officially recognized minorities (alongside Greeks and Jews) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.102.137.100 (talk) 13:12, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hamshenis

[edit]

I believe that this article is missing a section about Hamshenis. GuggiePrg (talk) 19:13, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think emigration is correct word in this context, so I fixed it. Grandmaster (talk) 12:20, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unknown IP you're going to need a better source than the turks.us VartanM (talk) 19:38, 5 February 2009 (UTC) This article is so ridiculous...it isn`t even funny. When all DNA tests prove that overwhelmingly....Turks and Azeris are above all....descedants of the indigenous population of Anatolia and the Cacausus.....an article like this (in the face of all evidence) insists otherwise.[reply]

Pretty soon, we`ll all have access to cheap DNA tests, and modern nationalisms will finally be proven to be exactly what they are......Fairy Tales for the masses.

Hemshenis are probably only one of the many Armenian populations who over centuries converted to Islam and were assimilated into the Kurdish, Arabic, Persian, Azeri and Turkish populations. They`re probably only the tip of the iceberg. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.234.13.75 (talk) 04:38, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nakharar

[edit]

There's no reference to the masacare of 400 Nakharars by caliph abd al malik on this article: Nakharar. Did the event ever take place? Is that source dubious? Faro0485 (talk) 00:23, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mleh muslim???????

[edit]

Where did you get this information from? Sounds strange! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.71.213.90 (talk) 23:10, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

All information written in Wikipedia are taken from reliable secondary sources as listed in the article. Chongkian (talk) 00:53, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Soviet period

[edit]

This section is poorly written and makes strong claims without citations. It needs to be re-written. But I am not qualified to do so. Can someone knowledgeable on this subject deal with this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.153.115.103 (talk) 21:53, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

During the Ottoman period many Armenians were forced to convert to Islam throughout Western Armenia through massacres, social pressure, and harsh taxation.

[edit]

Ottomans did not forced anybody to convert to Islam. Many cristians pashas composers denies this argument. Armenians were reachist socaity. Islam doesnt accept forceing to convert to Islam. Totaly wrong knowledge. I added Farqad Sabakhi is 2. generation from prophet Muhammed. Noteable converted to Islam --176.33.242.207 (talk) 06:39, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
