Hosue Folk Religion

Hosue Folk Religion, also called Hosueism is a Ahlake folk religion, compromising of a separate set of beliefs that are sometimes considered a add-on to the Ikulapiye belief. The central belief is that all returns to the house, the residence, and that your residence is your greatest assistance in life.

Hman
The central belief is that all residences and buildings are guarded by the Spirit of Hosue, Hman (AH: الحمان, Romanization: Al-Hmán), also named Hwan. Hman protects all people and residences, but those who subvert the 10 Cosmic Laws, similar to the Ikulapiye laws, will be punished in Varuk and will not be protected. Hman is in the form of the Latin letter H, with human face organs. He has also been given 10 names: The-Divine, The-Protector, The-Harmonizer, The-Almighty, The-Forgiving, The-Impartial, The-Enlightened, The-Embracing, The-Rightful, and The-All-Seeing.

Bob and Jif
Bob and Jif are the two Mete-Askars, those who give divine judgement to all species after death, and each has a different role. Bob (AH: ارسَبوب, Romanization: Ar-Sabuub) is the protector of humanity, and works to protect the harmony in a household, whereas Jif (AH: ارسجّفي, Romanization: Ar-Sajjife) is the exorcist who protects land against Uzundis. Bob and Jif exist in the form of any vegetation or fruit, as they are the messengers of nature and agriculture.

Qous
Qous (AH: احقوسر, Romanization: Ah-Qousr) is often seen as the Hosue version of Chuot. It is believed that Qous was executed unrightfully for his beliefs on ethics and law, and ended up becoming a divine judge and rule-maker of Miluun. He brings misfortune to the wrongdoers in Ritapaa, the Ikulapiye mortal realm. Qous is commonly depicted as a standing rat wearing a Gat hat, with two scroll papers hanging from the back of the hat. The most commonly written prayers are '主智慧領先' (Romanization: Ya Asuun Ssimiki Yaiyya), meaning 'The wisdom of the lord is greatest', and '悪霊退散' (Romanization: Akuryou taisan), meaning 'Evil spirits shall be warded away'.

Judgement
Most of these are based of the belief of Tamakeyt.

Atkha
Atkha refers to divine judgement that can occur in the mortal dimension.

An example of such an incident is the Yyasewi Lipan eiMoksa, although this is disputed upon followers. Some followers claim that Bob had granted them a large piece of meat to feed three villages during the great Ahlake Famine of 3874BR, and people began to pray to it, thanking Bob for such a gift. Most scholars believe that this did not happen, as Bob does not interfere in these sorts of events.

Shikurra
Shikurra refers to divine judgement that only occurs after death during the Yana Heavenly Trial, which is a trial conducted after every mortal, immortal, animal, and sentient objects' lives in order to decide on the following action taken. This can range from reincarnation, promotion, path to heaven, lower-reincarnation, sub-lower-reincarnation, Dakhab punishment, and Krusik punishment.

Eternal Today
Believers follow the concept of a never ending today. It is said that Al-Hman can unleash Aketi (tomorrow) whenever he pleases, ending the world over time. It is also said the Narendra Modi resides in Aketi, waiting for eternity to conclude on itself.

This belief comes from a verse in the Ya Lipumi:

"Ehaha! Ca kutit. Isa dese za aketi ekamyi. Cige! Isa eraca ahieti, isa iraca aketi. Racawa raci areti. Ca desirez areti! Atnu surisani areti na." (ATS 3:14)

This translates to:

"Children! Listen. Do not hope that tomorrow will change. That is wrong! There was no yesterday, there will be no tomorrow. Only today exists. Now hope for today! For today is eternal."

Another common argument comes from Ilahja Kasreti, which summarizes the belief:

"Today is a day. A great day! But is yesterday a day? Did yesterday ever exist? Think about it. Yesterday has the word day in it, but it is no more. Therefore it is not. Tomorrow has no 'day' in it, but in contrasts yesterday. Will there be tomorrow? Truthfully not. Listen to me, as I mandate the cosmic laws. When one strikes midnight, what you perceive as tomorrow becomes today. 11:59 is today, 12:00 is tomorrow, but when you reach it, it is today. Will we ever reach tomorrow? No. There is no tomorrow or yesterday. The concept of today is eternal. And time is a useless measurement as there is only one concept: today."

Ya Lipumi
Ya Lipumi, meaning 'my prophecy', was a book believed to be carved into stone tablets 4000 years ago by Hman's mortal form, buried deep into the grounds of Aozan, and left there. The tablets were excavated, translated for 200 years, and transcribed onto paper. The book contains the cosmic laws, what one must do for protection, rules to prayers, prayers, the history of the world, and the explanation of all deities.

Atesasa
Atesasa, meaning 'words', is a collection of transcripts of Hematu, the second prophet's speeches.

Liputuuwki
Most followers believe in the legitimacy of the Liputuuwki. However, some outer Aozan sects do not accept a Hosue-Ikulapiyist belief as pure and hence do not believe in it.

Demographics
Hosue Folk Religion is currently only practiced in Aozan, and is an official religion there.
