description Under the leadership of Qurqmaz (d. 993/1585), the Emir of the Ma’nids, the Druze in Lebanon did not pay taxes regularly for a long time, and complaints were made about them having acquired firearms. In 993/1585, the Egyptian Governor Damad İbrahim Pasha (d. 1010/1601) organized an expedition to the region. Large numbers of rifles were seized and the unpaid taxes that had accumulated were collected. Qurqmaz died in his hiding place. At this time, the Shafi’i scholar Ismâîl b. Ahmad b. Ibrahim Nâblusî (d. 993/1585) wrote a book on the Druze. Many fatwas from different scholars against the Druze also had been decreed, some of which were recorded in this book.The book also contains information about the history of the Druze, their basic views, and the regions where they live. Upon the order of the governor of Damascus, Ali Pasha, the book was translated into Turkish by the former Nizib Qadi, Lutfullah. He became known as the owner of the risalah [treatise]. The information provided in this treatise has not yet been used in research on the history of the Druze in the region. This study will introduce the author of the book, the scholar Nâblusî and explain the history of the Druze in the region and their relations with the Ottoman administration at the time the book was written, especially the events that led to the Egyptian governor’s expedition. The writing process and content of the book will be discussed by establishing a relationship with these events.
