The Druze are a unique religious and ethnic group primarily found in Syria and Lebanon, with smaller communities in Israel and Jordan. Their tradition dates back to the 11th century and incorporates elements of Islam, Hinduism, and even classical Greek philosophy. The Druze faith is an Abrahamic, monotheistic, syncretic, and ethnic religion whose main tenets are the unity of God and the belief in reincarnation and the eternity of the soul. The Druze are followers of the Tawheed faith that centers on the belief in the oneness of God. The Druze are ethnically Arab and Arabic-speaking, and their religion incorporates many beliefs from Islam, Judaism, and Christianity, as well as Greek philosophy and Hinduism. The Druze are a close-knit community who are extremely loyal to their identity and faith. The Druze religion is secret and closed to converts, and no member of another religion can become Druze. The Druze place heavy emphasis on philosophy and spiritual purity, and nearly all Druze believe in God. The Druze have a strong sense of belonging to the Druze community, and about seven-in-ten Druze say their religious identity is very important to them.
