Question : #110

Category: Interfaith Dialogue

Subject:	People of the book in today's society
Question:	When talking about 'people of the book', are the modern day Christians and Jews still equal as Ahle Kitab? Ie. Has their faith changed too much*
Answer:	Salaam alaykum I do not understand what is meant by being equal as ahl al-kitab. The Christians are considered to be closer to Islam than the Jews. But, both are still considered to be ahl al-kitab.
