A questioner says: Can we say that in our time there are believers from the People of the Book like the Negus (may Allah have mercy on him)?
The Shaykh:
Allah knows best, my brother. We do not know. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
Whoever does not believe in the Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is a disbeliever. Even if he believes in Allah and follows the previous messengers, if he does not believe in the Messenger, he is a disbeliever. Yes.
