This is true...... concerning the druze :
with time the ismailites underwent divison just like most religions in the world....
I'm sure many of u will remember the history class from school
....if so remember the chapter about "fatimides" or "al fatimiyyin".....
one of the fatimide caliphs, is called "al Hakem bi Amr allah".... this guy in an ismailite one of their imams now after his death a group of Ismailis believed that he didn't actually die and claimed that one day he will reappear to bring back Divine justice
This group of ismalites is the "Druze" we all know they are present in Lebanon, Syria and Palestine..... but the majority of Ismailites followed the son of "Al Hakem bi amr allah" and his descendants....
