the muslim view of non-muslims is very similar to the way christians view non-christians.
the general belief that God (Allah in arabic) sent prophets to guide their people, but that the message was corrupted by the people and people strayed from the true path. the classic and well known example is the Story of Moses and Aaron. hence, Judaism and Christianity were teaching the true path. The message of the 'Oneness of God'
Islam is viewed by muslims as the only remaining unadulterated message. Islam, like Christianity but unlike Judaism mentions heaven and hell in its holy text, the Qur'an. without getting into minor details, those that followed the path of the 'Oneness of God' will go to heaven, and those that didnt will go to hell.
not sure if you need me to expand, but i can give some more detail if you like.

this is a huge question on which thousands upon thousands of books have been written about over the past 50 years which i can not do justice. this topic is so vast, i dont know where to start.
is there any particular issues, topic or questions that you wanted addressed?
