Hoyland Al-ʿUṣūr al-Wusṭā 25 (2017) One could interpret this for or against Donner, since on the one hand, “those who believe” are distinguished from Jews, Sabians and Christians, intimating an awareness of confessional boundaries, but, on the other hand, they are categorized together with Jews, Sabians and Christians in respect of their common belief in God and the Last Day, their righteous behavior and an implication of easy entry into heaven.23 Thus, although it is not made explicit in what way other monotheist groups related to Muhammad’s community in this world, they certainly would appear to be on a par with Muhammad’s community in the next world, sharing equally in the benefits of the afterlife.	cache/alusur-7000.pdf	txt/alusur-7000.txt
