Yes, that's true.

I do believe Muslims call Jews and Christians "People of the Book". I'm not sure if they have any other recognition for religions such as Hinduism or Bhuddism. I'm not trying to offend any Muslims here, I just don't know much about the religion, and it's just something I do think I recall reading.
