No, it is not compulsory for every Muslim. Actually, Whirling Dervish is a sufi kind of dance, practiced in Turkey and its purpose is to feel unity with Allah. This tradition was started in reference with Jalal-ud-Din Rumi, who was one of the major Muslims mystics and is still revered in all over the World, including Turkey.
