about

"The Yazidi consider Tawûsê Melek an emanation of God and a good, benevolent angel who has redeemed himself from his fall and has become a demiurge who created the cosmos from the Cosmic egg. They consider him to be the leader of the archangels, not a still fallen or still disgraced angel, but a forgiven one and an emanation of God himself.

They also hold that the source of evil is in the heart and spirit of humans themselves, not in Tawûsê Melek. Yazidis believe that good and evil both exist in the mind and spirit of human beings. It depends on the humans, themselves, as to which they choose. In this process, their devotion to Tawûsê Melek is essential, since it was he who was given the same choice between good and evil by God, and chose the good.

Some Christians, Muslims and others identify Tawûsê Melek as Lucifer or Satan, for refusing to submit to God and bow to Adam, believing that his defiance caused him to fall from God's grace. Yazidis revere Tawûsê Melek for his independence."
