Only members who take strict vows of abstinence (including abstaining from alcohol, lying, and certain foods) and undergo years of moral testing are granted access to these writings. The majority of Druze, called Juhhal (the "Ignorant"), live by an oral tradition and a public ethical code (e.g., truthfulness, protection of community, mutual aid) but never read the secret books.
The phrase (كتب الدروز السرية) translates to "the secret books of the Druze." For centuries, these texts have fascinated scholars, theologians, and historians. Unlike the Quran for Muslims or the Bible for Christians, the core canonical texts of the Druze faith are neither published for public consumption nor recited in communal worship. They remain strictly guarded, accessible only to a select, initiated minority within the Druze community known as Uqqal (the "Wise" or "Enlightened"). ktb aldrwz alsryt
