Who are the people of the Book



“people of the book” is not refering to jews and christians . the jews and christians have man-made books .Taurat and Injeel mentioned in the Quran .
Then wherefore succoured them not those whom they had taken for gods beside Allah, as a means of approach? Aye! they failed them. And that was their lie, that which they had been fabricating. And recall what time We turned towards thee a company Of the Jinns hearkening Unto the Quran. So when they came in the presence thereof they said: give ear. Then when it was ended, they turned back to their people as warners. They said: O our people!verily we have hearkened Unto a Book sent down after Musa, confirming that which was before it, guiding Unto the truth and a straight path. O our people! answer Allahs summoner and believe in him; He shall forgive you your sins and shall shelter you from a torment afflictive. And whosoever answereth not Allahs summoner, he cannot frustrate His vengeAnce on the earth, and for him there will be, beside Him, no patrons. Those are in error manifest.46 Surah Al-Ahqaf(27-32)

Quran is the word of Allah.revealed on Muhammad. A  guidance for mankind.
Yet when the truth is come unto them from before Us, they say: wherefore hast he not been vouchsafed the like of that which was given unto Musa? Disbelieved they not in that which was given unto Musa aforetime? They say;two magics supporting each other. And they say: verily in all such things we are disbelievers.  Say thou: then bring a Book from before Allah, that is better in guidance than these two shall follow it–if ye are truth-tellers. 28[48-49]
46:4  Say thou: bethink ye: whatsoever ye call upon beside Allah-show me whatsoever they have created of the earth? Or have they any partnership in the heavens? Bring me a Book before this, Or some trace of knowledges if ye say sooth. 
3:187 And recall what time Allah took a bond from those who were vouchsafed the Book: ye shall surely expound it to the people and ye shall hide it not; whereafter they cast it behind their backs, and bartered it for a small price. Vile is that wherewith they have bartered.
3:110 O Ye are the best community sent forth unto mankind; ye command that which is reputable and ye prevent that which is disreputable. and ye believe in Allah If the people of the Book believe, surely it were better for them. Of them are believers, and most of them are transgressors.
2:109 Fain would Many of the People of the Book turn you back infidels after ye have believed, out of envy from their, after the truth hath become manifest unto them so Pardon them, and pass over, until Allah sendeth His command. Verily Allah is over everything Potent.
3:113 Not are they all alike. Of the people of the Book there are a community steadfast, reciting the revelations of Allah in the hours of night while they prostrate themselves.
Al Kitab Allah revealed to the prophets the first people of the book or books or writings ayats inOral/ physical forms was given to Prophets not Christians and Jews
(2:213) Mankind was one community; thereafter Allah raised prophets as bearers of glad tidings and warners, as He sent down the Book With truth that He may judge between mankind in that wherein they disputed. And none differed therein save those unto whom it was vouchsafed after the evidences had come to them, out of spite among themselves; then Allah guided those who believed unto the truth of that regarding which they differed, by His leave. Allah guideth whomsoever He listeth unto a path straight.
5:110 And call to mind what time Allah will say: Isa, son of Maryam, remember My favour unto thee and unto thine mother when I aided thee with the holy spirit so that thou spakest unto mankind in the cradle and in maturity, and when taught thee the Book and wisdom and the Taurah and the Injil, and when thou formedst out of clay as though the likeness of a bird by My command, and thou breathedest thereinto and it became a bird by My command, and thou healedest the blind from birth and the leprous by My command; and when thou causedest the dead to come forth by My command; and when I restrained the Children of Israil from thee when thou didst come to them with evidences, and those of them who disbelieved said: this is but magic manifest.
the books   Quran “knows” that torah, injeel Quran and other “extractions” constitute different physical books.
Firsts “extractions” have been lost or altered by humans. Last extraction is protected by God himself but will be deserted and misunderstood.
And the Apostle will say: my lord! verily my people took this Quran as a thing to be shunned.25[30]
Verily We sent down the Taurat wherein was a guidance and a light. By it the prophets who submitted themselves judged those who were judaised, and so did the divines and the priests by that wherewith they were entrusted of the Book of Allah and they had become witnesses thereof. Wherefore fear not the mankind but fear Me, and barter not My revelations for a small price, And whosoever judgeth not by that which Allah hath sent down – those then they are the infidels.5[44]
Allah abolisheth whatsoever He Will and keepeth; and with Him is the mother of the Book. 13 (39) 
And whether We shew thee part of that which We have promised them, or We take thee away, on thee is only the preaching, and on Us is the reckoning. 13 (40)
When sectarians says “People of THE BOOK” are jews and christians and not the Muslim, they are simply rejecting “THE BOOK”.
