Al‑Munfarid bi‑Dhātihi (“The One Alone in His Essence”) is a title known from historical references to Druze religious literature and from mentions within scholarly studies of the faith’s metaphysical vocabulary. Although no public manuscript, edition, or translation exists, the title appears in bibliographies, oral tradition, and discussions of the Druze esoteric corpus, indicating that it belongs to the body of doctrinal writings preserved exclusively for initiated members of the community.


The name itself reflects a metaphysical epithet used within Druze theology, describing the Divine as utterly singular and beyond all likeness. This association places the text within the intellectual environment of the early 11th century, when Druze scholars produced numerous works exploring the nature of divine unity, emanation, and spiritual hierarchy. While the specific contents of Al‑Munfarid bi‑Dhātihi remain hidden, its thematic resonance suggests a work concerned with the highest stratum of Druze metaphysics — the transcendence of the One and the mystery of the Divine Essence.


Publicly, what is known comes from secondary scholarship and internal references: the text is acknowledged as part of the restricted Druze canon, alongside other esoteric writings such as the Epistles of Wisdom and several lost or concealed manuscripts. Members of the Druze faith have openly affirmed that certain teachings are reserved for the initiated, and that titles like Al‑Munfarid bi‑Dhātihi refer to doctrinal units meant to be approached only within the community that safeguards them.


As a result, Al‑Munfarid bi‑Dhātihi stands today not as an accessible book but as a historical and theological signpost — a name that marks the presence of a sacred teaching, known through its echoes in the tradition, its role in the architecture of Druze cosmology, and the reverence with which it is kept.
