What religion were the Janissaries born into?
Most Janissaries were born into ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN homes before they were forcibly converted to Sunni Islam between the ages of 5 and 10.

However, they were not slaves in a conventional sense since they did wield a large amount of political power and were often more powerful than free people. However, they had no control over their own employment, residence, and movement. This makes them slaves.

Did ottoman religious policy require all Shiite Muslims to convert to Sunni Islam?
Speaking historically, the ottoman policies concerning minorities in the middle eastern region such as christians & shia muslims was a view of them as heretics. In Lebanon you had many uprisings from these last mentioned groups (christians&shia) and history suggests there were plenty of massacres on them which made christians and shia's of Lebanon ally themselfs with eachother against the external threat (i.e. Ottomans). When beduin arab tribes (mainly sunnis) were granted citizenship by the Ottomans in Lebanon in return of converting the minority's, saw a huge influx of massacres and sunnis which historically hadn't been great in numbers in that area of the region. These beduin arabs came to be called Mamluks and where allied to their Turkish leaders based in Istanbul. These attrocities commited against the christians and shias of lebanon came to change lebanon demographically and geographically disperse the people of certain areas because of the massacres and threats on a daily basis. One area of Lebanon which suggest this is Tripoli which with it's people is a sunni majority city, while historical records prove it was once a shia dominated city...
In Iran today you find many Azeri turks (mainly shias) who had to flee their ancestral home of Turkey because of the persecution they faced by the Ottoman shia policies...
The Ottoman policy was to have a sunni dominated region which it could rule without uprisings it saw frequently from the shia minoritys who had a huge disstrust in the religiously based empires who all through history had viewed them as heretics.
