No Iron sulphide is a compound
because a compound has 2 stages and the iron and sulphur have to be put together the put in fire
The elements will react and will form iron sulfide, which is a compound.
iron and sulphur
To make a compound, bond 2 or more different elements chemically. An example would be to bond iron and sulphur to make iron sulphide.
There are two compounds ferrous sulfide and ferrous sulfate.

Iron sulphide is an ionic compound. The Iron is in a +2 oxidation state and the sulphur is in a -2 oxidation state.
The elements will react and will form iron sulfide, which is a compound.
iron and sulphur
You need a magnet to separate iron from a mixture (not from a compound).
iron and sulphur is an element because there is the tiniest amount of a specific type of atom inside the different chemicals.

When Iron and sulphur bond if forms the compound iron sulphide
If you just mix iron and sulphur together, you're still left with a pile of iron and sulphur that are distinctly separate and could be easily separated by throwing the mixture in water (iron sinks, sulphur powder floats). If they were to react together, to become iron sulphide, then they would be chemically bound to each other as a compound and wouldn't be able to be separated by physical means.
To make a compound, bond 2 or more different elements chemically. An example would be to bond iron and sulphur to make iron sulphide.
A mixture of Iron and Sulphur is exactly that, iron filings mixed with sulphur that has not undergone any chemical reaction. Iron sulphide is the result of the reaction of Iron with sulphur.
Fe2SO4 for Iron(II) sulfate and Fe2(SO4)3 for Fe(III)sulfate.
