Abstract

In every community of believers, many sacred have been produced, that understanding contains a historical fact that is not worth talking about, as a result of the collective understanding of the community as a whole The pile has been produced. As a Sufi figure, Sheikh Hassan has a high religious position in the look of the Yazidis and is considered the foundation of the Yazidi faith, although he is the product of their imagination and their social nature requires them to sanctify their leaders and good men But this historical understanding cannot be denied and the collective imagination of the whole group cannot be marginalized Rather, it must be treated and evaluated as part of imaginary history. Because this understanding has become part of historical reality and has a divine position in the religious beliefs of the group. In this view, we have tried to compare his really character with the understanding described by the community of believers. The main purpose of this work is to reveal the imaginary image of believers of all religions, because it expresses the same meaning in the sanctification of prominent figures in any religious belief. Therefore, it can be said that Sheikh Hassan in Yazidi memory represents all the figures for whom this legendary image was created and sanctified, in the sense that they are regarded above human beings.
