Dadistan i Denig (Religious judgements), is a Pahlavi text by Manūščihr, high priest of the Persian Zoroastrian community in the 9th century C.E. It comprises an introduction and ninety-two (ninety-four in the translation of E. W. West, who counted the introduction and an irrelevant section at the end of the manuscript) miscellaneous questions (pursišn) put by Mihrxwaršēd, son of Ādurmāh, and others to Manūščihr, along with his answers (passox). The title traditionally given to the work is of late origin; the author himself referred to it in his introduction as a pursišn-nāmag (book of questions). Manūščihr, the son of Juwān-Jam (traditional Pārsī Gušn-Jam), son of Šāpūr (Nāmagīhā 1.3.10, ed. Dhabhar, p. 14), came from a notable line of high priests (cf. Nāmagīhā, ed. Dhabhar, p. 3). The only extant date for his life is 250 Y./881 C.E., when he completed his Nāmagīhā (3.21, tr. West, p. 365).
