And the identification of malaki Taus with the fallen angel - Satan among Christians or Iblis among Muslims is a black PR of Yazidis by representatives of the Abrahamic religions.

In fact, this temple is the center of the Yazidi religion.

5. According to the Yazidi cosmogony, Sha'id Ben jar is the forefather of a part of humanity that was born to Adam not from eve. There is a legend that Adam, after disagreements with eve, placed his seed in a pitcher, where a male embryo appeared and to him the Yazidis build their pedigree.

8. Hirka is a Holy garment of wool worn by Yazidi monks. The most revered religious attribute for Yazidis.

9. The Lord Asid, Malak Tavus and Shehadi – are one, And do not look for you another fact. They fulfill the wishes of their husbands. (From the hymn of Shaadi …)

10. According to Yazidi beliefs, the world was a continuous ocean, and the angels led by Tausi Malak descended to the place where the spring is located. They lowered the ferment into the water and created a firmament, as a sign of which a source appeared at this place, which is Holy. This water Yazidis consecrate their children.

11. The main Shrine of the Yazidi in Shangal. The temple was named in honor of the Azerbaijani leader and the Holy Sharfadin. He led the Yazidis in a difficult time for them, saving them from another genocide. In August 2014, ISIS terrorists tried to destroy the temple, but met with desperate resistance from the Yazidis. For many centuries, the temple of Sharfadin was an example of the firmness of the Yazidi spirit.
