Idelvah
Idelvah (Adzamasi: /ɪdɛlva/, 'the holy stories') is the main collection of canonical texts in Qurosism. Due to the diverse traditions within Qurosism, the term idelvah can be used broadly to include a variety of traditional stories, texts, and cultural and religious teachings shared and followed by Quurožiri.
The earliest surviving physical texts that are considered idelvah date to the 7th century BCE and are in the Ancient Neviran language. Many other ancient texts in Early Old Adzamic and other related Adzo-Neviric languages have also been preserved. The most recent texts to receive wide canonical acceptance all fall under sub-sects of the religion, such as Temyarq texts dating as recently as the tenth century CE during the Holy Adzamic Empire.
There are over a thousand idelvah that are regarded as canonical by at least one rekkadantik (small sub-sects), of which a mere dozen are universally accepted by all denominations. The core texts are called ilheđekvah (the twelve [holy ones]) and represent the key mythological history of the Quurožiri. Many of the other texts relate to little-known, local biārevah, lesser historical events, simple fables, or are syncretically incorporated from other religions.
