It originated in Egypt in 1017 and is named for one of its founders, Muammad al-Daraz (d. 1019/20). Strictly monotheistic and based in Islam, particularly Isml Islam, Druze beliefs include an eclectic mixture of elements from Gnosticism, Neoplatonism, Judaism, and Iranian religion. The Druze believe in the divinity of al-kim bi-Amr Allh (985-1021?), sixth caliph of the Ftimid dynasty of Egypt, and expect him to return someday to inaugurate a golden age. The Druze are divided hierachically into two orders the sages, who are fully initiated in the beliefs of the religion, and the ignorant, who constitute the uninitiated lay majority. They permit no converts, either to or from their religion, and no intermarriage.

In the early 21st century they numbered about one million, mostly in Syria and Lebanon
