assalamo Alaykum wa rahmatu Allah
as far as that goes, it comes under aqueeda.
To obtain a right aqueeda you must believe in all the prophets including the last prophet, saaws.
If you do not believe in all the prophets then the aqueeda is not complete and as such your faith and belief are incomplete.
You will remember that the prophet Jesus saaws will come before the last days and he will pray as a Muslim under the rightly guided Imam, he will admit to the shahadah of laa Illaha illaa Allah, and Mohamed rasoul Allah wa khaatam alnabiyeen, (no prophet after him).
I am sorry, I should write here something from my book of aqueeda to prove my point but I dont know where I put it.
Anyway, those in ignorance of Islam will of course be judged as Allah sees fit but alhamdulilaah I think there are few ignorant of Islam these days. So the correct and only correct path is to believe in Allah his messengers his books his angels and fate the good and bad, and do good deeds then in shaa Allah heaven will be awaiting the righteous.
