According to the Church, they do.
The new Catechism says: "The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims"

Ummm...hate to tell you this, but the Catechism is screwed up! What is this the "Catechism" for, the Episcopal church?
To: narses
The new catechism you speak of has ignored the words of the Lord Jesus Christ Himself:
"If you deny me before men, I will deny you before the Father in Heaven" Matthew 10
If someone denies Jesus Christ is God then Jesus Christ denies that person before the Father. Hence Muslims who deny Jesus Christ is God, if they do not come to believe in Him, are not worshipping God despite the catechism unless you exalt it above God.
