Is it permissible for a Christian doctor to treat a Muslim patient?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible for a man to send us?

The Shaykh : Is it permissible what?

The questioner : A Christian man, is it permissible for a Christian doctor to treat a Muslim man, or the reverse? I mean.

The Shaykh : And say what I did not understand.

The questioner : Is it permissible?

The Shaykh : No, no, it is not you. One day I came.

The questioner : Is it permissible for a Christian man to treat a Muslim, or the reverse? Or the reverse?

The Shaykh : Treats a Muslim.

The questioner : Yes. Or the reverse.

The Shaykh : Christian. I thought you would ask whether it is permissible for a Christian doctor to treat a Muslim woman? As for a Christian treating a Muslim, that is permissible, but it is better that Muslims cooperate with one another. As for permissibility, it is permissible.

The questioner : By Allah, O Shaykh, the Christians do not approach Muslims with anything unless they are forced to, in which case they benefit each other in a very strange way.

The Shaykh : So consider, O those who have eyes.
