Yazidi Book of Revelation information


A page from Yazidi Book of Revelation manuscript

The Yazidi Book of Revelation (Kurdish: Kitêba Cilwe, lit. 'The Book of Revelation') is the title of a Kurdish book which is assumed to be one of two sacred books of Yazidis, the other being the Yazidi Black Book (Mishefa Reş). However, the authenticity of its sacredness has not been confirmed.[1] The book claims to be the words of Tawûsî Melek wherein he allocates the different responsibilities, blessings and misfortunes as he desires and which humans have no say in.[2]
