I thought you couldn't convert into Zoroastrianism

Hello

I just found this subreddit. Basically the title. And if you're Kurdish, then how can you convert into it? I thought it was just Persians. Kinda how like you can't convert into a Yazidi or Druze.

Forgive me if my question is inappropriate

Mention of a fire Temple in Hewler/Erbil in the 13th century.

in the book "معجم البلدان" The Book of Dictionary of Countries of the writer and poet Yaqut al-Hamawi, he mentions an arabic poet by the name of Abdulrahman ibn al-Mustakhaf (died in 1237) who express his dissatisfaction for the people of Erbil for having a "House of fire"

here is the poem.

  • Erbil is truly an abode of immorality, so no rational person would rely on strengthening it
  • If it had not been a house of immorality, the house of fire would not have become its corridor.
