The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: Is the one who died before the mission of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called a Muslim or is he called a disbeliever?

He is called one of the people of the period of interruption, and his case is left to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.

May Allah reward you, my honorable brother. That is the end.
