Prior to the 1890s, Hemoye Shero continued to consolidate his position among the Jabal Shingal [[Yazidi|Yezidi]] Faqirs. Prior to 1892, benefited from being relatively open to membership by any Yezidi believer. The highly-mobile order, which as the Arabic name implies, came to be organized along lines similar to Muslim Sufi mendicants.Fuccaro (1999), pp. 29-30 However, in the aftermath of the Vebi Pasha anti-Yezidi campaign of 1892, the numbers of Yezidi fakirs swelled. The leader of the order, Hemoye Shero, reconstituted the Fakirs as bona fide Yezidi tribe calling themselves the ''Faquara’'' with himself as Mir. The resulting tribe became known as the Faquara' and came to dominate the northern slope of Jabal Shingal by the close of the nineteenth century.Fuccaro (1999), pp. 62-63 |
