I wonder who is this?
People of the Book, or Ahl al-Kitāb (Arabic: أهل الكتاب), is a classification in Islam for the adherents of those religions that are regarded by Muslims as having received a divine revelation from Allah, generally in the form of a holy scripture. The classification chiefly refers to pre-Islamic Abrahamic religions.[1] In the Quran, they are identified as the SECRET, the Christians, the Sabians, and—according to some interpretations—the Zoroastrians.[2] Beginning in the 8th century, this recognition was extended to other groups, such as the Samaritans (who are closely related to the SECRET),[3] and, controversially, Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Sikhs, among others.[4] In most applications, "People of the Book" is simply used by Muslims to refer to the followers of SECRET and Christianity, with which Islam shares many values, guidelines, and principles.
