The Mohammedans in the spiritual world are to be seen behind the Roman Catholics in the West, and so to speak surrounding them. The reason why they are to be seen close behind the Christians is that they recognise our Lord as a very great prophet, the wisest of all, who was sent into the world to teach mankind, and they also recognise Him as the Son of God. In the spiritual world the distance of everyone's dwelling from the centre, where the Christians are, depends upon his belief in the Lord and in one God. For that is what links their minds with heaven, and distances them from the east, over which the Lord is.
