Is it permissible to describe the Jews and the Christians as brothers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on the one who says, "Our brothers are the Jews and the Christians"?

Answer:
Yes, they are his brothers, but we, if Allah wills, do not consider them our brothers; we disavow them to Allah. As for the one who says they are his brothers, they are his brothers, unless he repents to Allah from this ugly statement. If he does not repent, they are his brothers. We ask Allah for safety.
