As regards the two categories of people following a wrong course, some of the greatest Islamic thinkers (e.g. Al-Ghazali or, in recent times, Muhammad 'Abduh) held the view that the people described as having incurred "God's condemnation" - that is, having deprived themselves of His grace - are those who have become fully cognizant of God's message and, having understood it, have rejected it; while by "those who go astray" are meant people whom the truth has either not reached at all, or to whom it has come in so garbled and corrupted a form as to make it difficult for them to recognize it as the truth (see 'Abduh in Manar I, 68 ff.).</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=book&rft.btitle=The+Message+of+the+Quran%2C+Commentary+on+Surah+Fatiha&rft.pages=23-24&rft.aulast=Asad&rft.aufirst=Muhammad&rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.muhammad-asad.com%2FMessage-of-Quran.pdf&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AAl-Fatiha" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-:1-18"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-:1_18-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFAli2006" class="citation book cs1"><a href="/wiki/Abdullah_Yusuf_Ali" title="Abdullah Yusuf Ali">Ali, Abdullah Yusuf</a> (2006). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170312164616/http://www.ulc.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/English-Quran-With-Commentaries.pdf"><i>The Meaning of The Noble Qur'an, Commentary on al-Fatiha</i></a> <span class="cs1-format">(PDF)</span>. p. 7.

And the Jews and the Christians even though both of them are misguided and both of them have God's Anger on them - the Anger is specified to the Jews, even though the Christians share this with them because the Jews knew the truth and rejected it and deliberately came with falsehood, so the Anger (of God being upon them) was the description most befitting them.
