On the centre of the flag they have Sun symbol having 21 spokes of rays. I think this is could be their Devine no. No. 21 is auspicious according to Vedic traditions. They are the only people in the western Asia who have Sun symbol on their flag in-place of Moon Crescent. That separate them from Islamic traditions.

      @@iamyou8994 I respectively disagree with you. Sanatanism was the faith of the Indo-Aryan people group which was in it's origin Monotheistic. Later this Indian regional faith became Polytheistic overtime.
      Then Zartosht or Zoroaster appears where is understands that the Aryan faith system is being ruined by the Indo-Aryan stock as a result the Devas in Sanatanism became Evil gods in Zartosht's ideology & Ahura/Asuras became Evil gods in Sanatanism ideology. Still we see Zoroastrianism projects Dualistic of deputized polytheistic tendency as stated by Nora Elizabeth Mary Boyce, the renowned British intellectual of Zoroastrianism.
      Hence Abraham from the Semitic stock enters the battle field. Remember fair skinned Aryans are Japhetic people so Allah/Ellai/Elohim rightfully said that the Sons of Japhetics will be in forefront of civilization & ideological advancements of Human race still they will be devoid of the original spirit of their Creator. Thus the seeds of Abraham a.k.a Isaac & Ishmael progenitions are given the duty firmly establish Allah's original way on earth among humans.
      12,000 year old Sanatanism and 3,400 year old Zoroastrianism does not de-legitimize or question marks Abrahamic faith systems, but it actually adds more feathers of truth & blessings to the fact that Allah did actually sent messengers among all racial people of the earth; but for some reason they dislodged themselves from the true path thus needing the Semitic stock to bring them back.

    When I first heard the name Yazidi, I wondered if it had any connection with the Iranian city of Yazd, which is the current center of Zoroastrian practices in Iran. I heard that they keep a perpetual sacred fire burning there. You did not comment on the many pictures of fire in your video. Is there any connection?

      Yezidism it seems, are that with the followers of God who didnt folow Moses and Israel as a covenant. The one God was followed before Abraham and the people of Israel. And I think Yezidism comes from that, it predates sumerian pantheons.

      I wonder if the named Angels of Judaism (and later Christianity and Islam) entered from the Babylonian culture(s).
      The Torah (the first five books of the Old Testament) was written after the Jews returned from the Babylonian captivity (6th century BC). There is no angel named in these five books. The first time an angel is named in the Old Testament is Daniel 8:16 - 'Gabriel' - which is an alternative spelling of Çibrayil. The book of Daniel may have been written around the fourth century BC.
      I would be very interested in knowing the etymology of each of the names of the seven angels of Yazidi faith.

    Hello!,I absolutely love to see that our religion is known to others despite our low numbers and I really thank you for making this awesome video. As an Ezidi/Yazidi I would like to put some points to make things less confusing:
    1-Ezidism is called Ezidism not Yazidism the word Yazidi came after what the Arabs called us and Ezid means God Ezidi means worshipper of God.
    2-Ezidism was not called Ezidism nor Yazidism it was called Dasni,and the Arabic caliphate has described kurds living in north Mesopotamia resisting them by the name Dasni,which later changed their name officially to Ezidi that can be seen in the rebellion done by Jafar Dasni and the الداسنية as described by Arabs meaning they already had a king and a system working,this debunks the idea of Ezidism being made by Adi Ibn Musafir and or Yazid Ibn Muawia.
    3-While marriage is not allowed between castes it is believed some are from Godly blood which is similar to those ancient Mesopotamian believes
    4-And finally the writing was not forbidden,it was in fact forced on the royal class and was optional to the rest due to high persecution and the kurdish language of the Ezidis it lead to them being isolated. Thanks and I hope you get a bigger channel in the future❤❤

    By the way, your Arabic pronunciation is really good, are you from an Arab descent?

      I'm Muslim. I have no idea of all these sects until 20yrs ago. Wahabi, Sunni, Shia, Ahmadi. Some are only know to me few yrs back. Never really bothered much. Anyway, minimally to be a Muslim, you have to hold on to the 6 pillars of faith followed by 5 pillar of Islam.
      But of course, if I were to see or heard things like contractual marriage even for 1 day, I'd freak out and wonder is that even Islamic?

    Great video. I was wondering why you put the cuneaform symbols for An in the thumbnail. The God of the Gods.
    Does this have something to do with Yazidi?
    What do you think about this theory: An drawn with a "pen" rather than a stylus and clay tablet evolved into the Om of Santana Dharma. I see it with the three triangles in the left being the three lines on the left of OM and the triangle on top being the bindi of the Om. The right side of Om is just a quick squiggle to do the right lines of An. 🕉️
    I would love to learn about the connection between An and Om and about santana dharma in ancient sumerian religion especially in how a Dharmic religion may have been around in the town of Abraham or maybe influenced his thoughts on monotheism in Ur.
    I'm sure you must have thought about this before.
