Abstract: Jamila NovruzovaThe classification of beliefs in the folklore of minority peoples Folklore is a rich field that reflects the culture and worldview of each people.In the folklore of the minority peoples living in Azerbaijan, as in other genres of oral folk literature, beliefs and trials hold an important place.This is because beliefs, on one hand, shape social and spiritual life, and on the other hand, reveal mythical and symbolic structures based on the difficulties and trials individuals face.Thus, this article emphasizes the importance of interpreting beliefs and trials in the folklore of minority peoples not only as folklore examples but also as a reflection of the spiritual world of each people.The article also divides belief systems into categories using scientific methodology, considering the structural and functional features of these systems.
