Question:
May Allah reward you. What is meant by the ummah of the call and the ummah of the response, and what is the difference between them?
Answer:
The ummah of the call is all people, the disbelievers and the Muslims, all of them are the ummah of the call. As for the ummah of the response, they are the Muslims specifically, those who accepted the call of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). This is the ummah of the response. Yes. So the Jews, the Christians, and the disbelievers are from the ummah of the call, because the Messenger was obligated to call them, and he called them to Allah the Exalted.
