Are Kurdish people Muslim? And if so, are they Sunni, or Shiite.?

Answer 1

Actually they're a little bit of everything. Most are Sunni Muslims who follow the Shaafi school of thought, but there are also Shia and Sufi. There are also small groups of Christian and Jewish Kurds.

Answer 2

They are mainly Muslim with a twist.

Here is an excerpt from wikipedia:

Today the majority of Kurds are officially Muslim, belonging to the Shafi school of Sunni Islam. Mystical practices and participation in Sufi orders are also widespread among Kurds[82]. There is also a minority of Kurds that are Shia Muslims, primarily living in the Ilam and Kermanshah provinces of Iran, Central Iraq (Fayli Kurds). The Alevis are another religious minority among the Kurds, mainly found in Turkey.

It is been said that Kurds "hold their Islam lightly", meaning that their faith tends not to be as assertive as it can become in other areas[83]. One consequence, for example, has been the greater freedoms enjoyed by Kurdish women have enjoyed more freedoms; they do not cover their faces, thier hijab is less restrictive and they do not wear full-cover garments such as the Iranian chador or Arabic abaya[84] [85].

Answer 3

Yes, they are Muslims.
Kurds are Sunni Muslims.
And they are Shafe'ite Sunnis.

That's the vast majority of them; though in Turkey, I met Shiite Kurds and Alawi Kurds too.

Among the famous Kurds was the great Saladin (1138-1193) who defeated the Crusaders at Hattin, slaughtered 30,000 Crusaders in this battle alone. At the siege of Acre (1189-1191) 50,000 Christians were slaughtered by his troops while 70,000 other Crusaders died from disease. He regained Jerusalem for Islam and burned the cross the Christians call the "True Cross" after the gay Coeur-de-Lion slew 2,700 Muslim prisoners at Acre. For this act, Saladin destroyed the holiest relic in Christianity for ever. May Allah have mercy upon him, Ameen!

Greater than Saladin would be his uncle, Shirkuh, who defeated the Crusaders in every battle he fought with them. A total of 173 battles that ended with the creation of the Zengid Empire that stretched from Yemen to Asia Minor and surrounded the Crusader states in the East. His nephew (Saladin) reaped the harvest of Shirkuh's persistence. Shirkuh was a great enemy of Christianity; he usually slew his captives if they were not to pay a very high ransom. He would not allow his Christian subjects to ride horses, mules or even donkeys; they must walk on foot. Christians were expelled from all government positions. They had to pay very heavy tributes and had to wear dirty distinctive clothes. Shirkuh was about to conquer Jerusalem and kill all the non-Muslim inhabitants there (in retaliation of the Crusader massacre of 1099), when he died in 1169. Saladin buried him some 23 feet from the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as a tribute to his great efforts in combatting the infidels. May Allah have mercy upon him, Ameen!

Again, we must not forget the Ayyubids who were Kurds. Those successors of Saladin defeated the Crusaders and captured Jerusalem in 1244, slaughtering all the Christian inhabitants there. They crushed the forces of Louis XI (whom you call St. Louis and whom the big city in Missouri is named after him), annihalated his force of 60,000 Crusaders and captured and imprisoned him at Mansourah in 1250. For this event the Muslims sang to Louis XI:

Fifty thousand of your men between killed, captured or wounded!
May Allah guide you to another Crusade so that Jesus from you would rest and relief!
And if your Pope is to advise you again, may be he a cheater in the clothes of an advisor!
Anyway the house of your arrest is still available and so is your jailer Subaih!

And at last...How could anyone forget the 10,000 Kurds, who, along with 4,000 Turks defeated the Imperial Byzantine army at Malaazigerd (1071), although the Byzantines numbered 120,000 Christians (according to the Christian sources) or even 200,000 (according to Islamic sources...I really trust the Muslims), annihalated their army and captured the Byzantine Emperor Romanus IV Diogenes for the ransom of 1,500,000 pieces of gold!
