Osmarynism (/'ɒzmærɪnɪzm/), also known as Humaitism (/'hju:maɪtɪzm/) was a major ancient religion founded by the Qi'nakhashi Prophet Osmaryn (in Middle Hammarian Osmārin, New Hammarian اسمیرن Osmārin, X Osmārīn, Chalcian Οσμαριν, Fiorentine Osmar or Osmaryn, c. BC 837–770, also known as Humaiti from the X for "all-knowing") in the Kingdom of Qi'nakhash in modern-day Qal'eh somewhere around 800 BC.

Osmarynism teaches of a morally opposite dualistic cosmology describing the duty and desire of mankind to do good, and the temptation to create evil. Osmaryn believed that the fate of humans in the afterlife would be decided by a powerful, although not omnipotent, deity known as Daêva (often romanised as "Dava"), who would judge their actions of their life and either send them to the Atarnmāna to be condemned to an afterlife of solitude, regret and grief if their actions were deemed as having succumbed to the temptation to create evil, or the Asa if they were deemed as good-willed and a carrier of Dava's message throughout their lifetime.

Osmarynism quickly gained traction throughout modern-day Qal'eh and Kodesh and quickly became the widely-practised religion throughout the Qi'nakhash Kingdom and rivalled the Ahurayasna Arvian kingdoms. It replaced the Pantheon of the Old Gods that had existed in the Qi'nakhash Kingdom for centuries prior. The Mazyaris continued to spread Osmarynism west into the Hammarian tribal kingdoms and Mazyari city-states of modern-day Hisaristan and the small Chalcian kingdoms and city-states of modern-day Romellea, where it remained as the main rival to the already-existing Ahurayasna religion, created around two centuries prior. Osmaryn literature spread throughout Artavasdes' conquests into central Asura during his reign of the Hasravanid Empire throughout the 5th century BC, with copies and transcriptions of Osmaryn literature being found as far west as Veleaz and Midrasia. While the reign of the Hasravanids was one marked with Osmaryn oppression and repression, the vast conquests of the empire allowed the teachings of Osmaryn to spread throughout Sifhar and eastern Asura.
