Thirteen countries have death penalty for apostasy — all Muslim

In normative Islam, challenging or criticizing Islamic texts renders you worthy of death. These countries demonstrate a clear awareness of that fact. “The countries where apostasy is punishable by death”, by Louis Dore, […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: An Apostate, Not Quite There
Omar Mahmood is an apostate from Islam who has bravely declared his apostasy in US Today. He claims, as the title of his piece says, that “Islam needs Islamophobia right now.” In Pakistan, a mob killed a journalism student because he didn’t believe. That could have been me.

“Can I criticize Islam without fearing for my life?”
The answer is, in fact, no. We may surmise this from how Islamic tradition records Muhammad himself dealing with criticism. Abu Afak was a poet who was over one hundred years old, and had mocked Muhammad in his verses. Muhammad asked the Sahaba: “Who will avenge me on this scoundrel?” One of the companions murdered […]
