Would you save a single muslim person instead of 100 non muslim persons?
Question
My friend asked me a question the other night and it kept me thinking, the question was: Would you save a single muslim person instead of 100 non muslim person.
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Your question is unclear. Nevertheless, Islam teaches us to be kind and helpful to every human being, irrespective of him being a Muslim or non-Muslim. To assist non-Muslims is also an act of virtue.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
