Druse

Druze are members of a unique religious community originating in the Middle East, primarily in Lebanon, Syria, and Israel. Their faith blends elements of Islam, philosophy, and other spiritual traditions, emphasizing unity, loyalty, and self-knowledge. They often maintain a close-knit society with shared cultural practices and secret religious rituals known only to initiated members. While they consider themselves part of the broader Muslim world, their beliefs and practices are distinct, and they are recognized as a separate religious group. The Druze also serve as a significant social and political community within their countries.
