abrahamic

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'druze say with' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'aramaic case of both needing translation' is the wordplay.
'case of' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters) (like emptying a case).
'needing translation' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'both' with its middle taken out is 'bh'.
'aramaic'+'bh'='aramaicbh'
'aramaicbh' is an anagram of 'ABRAHAMIC'.
