Nowhere in 841 does it imply that Muslims are saved. Additionally, actually “professing to hold” the faith of Abraham can be quite different from “holding the faith”.

Nostra Aetate also states:

The Church regards with esteem also the Moslems. They adore the one God, living and subsisting in Himself; merciful and all- powerful, the Creator of heaven and earth,(5) who has spoken to men; they take pains to submit wholeheartedly to even His inscrutable decrees, just as Abraham, with whom the faith of Islam takes pleasure in linking itself, submitted to God.

It doesn't say that you guys are saved either...It puts you and the muzlims in the same boat...
