Notes
This study deals with the role of the Kurds in Egypt from the Ottoman era until the era of Muhammad Ali Pasha and his successors, as Egypt is the Arab country most closely associated with the Kurds. After the Islamic conquest of Kurdistan and the Kurds’ conversion to Islam, the Kurds played a prominent role in creating Islamic civilization, so they immigrated to Egypt, especially during the era of the rule of the Ayyubid state, as thousands of Kurdish families immigrated and spread from southern to northern Egypt, and many of them held positions political and military, in addition to the role of Kurdish merchants and their contribution to economic life, and the stability of some of them there. The influx of Kurds to Egypt continued throughout subsequent eras, whether during the rule of the Mamluks or the Ottomans. The era of the rule of Muhammad Ali and his successors witnessed a noticeable increase in the migration of Kurds to it. Kurdish figures emerged in Egypt and enjoyed an important position. They migrated to Egypt from the cities of Kurdistan, and over the years they integrated with the Egyptian people and their roots were severed with their original homeland, and all that remained for them was The name, as they were called (Kurdish) in reference to their original areas of displacement, or some physical features, and among them emerged many military leaders, administration men, judges, doctors, engineers, writers, poets, jurists, and artists. They provided services to Egypt and through their hands the wheel of the modern renaissance in Egypt turned while they did not deny their Kurdish nationalism.
