Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, do the People of the Book, the Jews and the Christians, believe in the resurrection, or are they like the disbelievers who do not believe in the resurrection?

Answer:
They believe in the resurrection. The People of the Book believe in the resurrection, they believe in the angels, and they believe in the messengers in general. So they have faith in general, and for that reason they are better than the polytheists and the atheists. They have a special treatment among the Muslims. Yes.
