The following is what I would refer to, and it’s exactly those people who did the “honor killing” that I referred to — of the young girl going out with that young Muslim boy. She was killed for going out with that Muslim boy, and also wanting to get married to him.

The original religion of the Kurds was Yazidism, a religion greatly influenced by Jewish, Zoroastrian, Christian and Islamic beliefs.[82][84] However, there are significant differences between Yazdanism and Zoroasterianism, such as the belief in re-incarnation. Most Yazidis live in Iraqi Kurdistan, in the vicinity of Mosul and Sinjar.[85] The Yarsan (or Ahl-e Haqq) religion is practised in western Iran, primarily around Kermanshah.
