Hamza sends its own missionaries to the various Ismaili congregations in Egypt and Syria. One of his missionaries, a young Turk from Bukhara, who is nicknamed ad-Darzī, is so active in missionary activity in Cairo that the new doctrine is known there as ad-Darzīya ; their followers are called Durūz ( Druze ).
