I have heard someone say that the Christians have only two problems: their exaggeration regarding Mary and their hatred of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)!

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I heard on one of the satellite channels someone saying that the Christians have only one problem, or rather two problems only. The first is their exaggeration regarding Mary (peace be upon her), and the second is their hatred of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Is this correct? What is their hatred of Muhammad?

Answer:
Their disbelief in Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is disbelief in Muhammad. In their view, the one who disbelieves in Muhammad is a disbeliever, no matter what he claims of faith, because Muhammad is the Messenger of all of humanity, and obedience to him is obligatory upon all people, including the Jews, the Christians, and others. So whoever does not believe in him is a disbeliever. I heard on one of the satellite channels that the Christians have only two problems: the first is their exaggeration regarding Mary (peace be upon her), and the second is their hatred of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Is this correct? Their exaggeration regarding Jesus, and despite their mention of it, they say that Allah is the third of three
that Allah is Christ, the son of Maryإِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:17]
. Despite this being mentioned on the satellite channel, this is misguidance. This is misguidance, and detailing the matters of the Christians is not our concern. We ask Allah for well-being.
