Ali, Majid Hassan, "Genocidal Campaigns during the Ottoman Era: The Firman of Mir-i-Kura against the Yazidi Religious Minority in 1832-1834" (2019)
Genocide Studies International, vol. 13, no. 1, University of Toronto Press, 2019
Majid Hassan Ali's peer-reviewed study of the 1832 to 1834 firman-authorized campaign by Mir Muhammad of Rawanduz against the Yazidis of the Sheikhan, Sinjar and Erbil districts, analyzing the religious fatwas used to legitimize the killing and enslavement and situating the episode within the wider history of genocidal campaigns targeting Yazidis under Ottoman-era rule. Its strength is direct engagement with the primary religious and administrative justifications used at the time; it is a focused study of one campaign rather than a general history.
