Planning To Leave Islam,Be Prepared To Be Killed

Islam they say preaches Peace and in fact they utter 'Peace Be? on Allah' very other sentence.

What exactly does the Koran say on those who leave Islam?

Read:..

12 But if they break faith with you after their treaty, and taunt your religion, then fight the leaders of misbelief; verily, they have no faith, haply they may desist.
13 Will ye not fight a people who broke their oaths, and intended to expel the Apostle? They began with you at first, are ye afraid of them? God is more deserving that ye should fear Him! If ye be believers, 14 Kill them!
Koran, sura 8
57 Verily, the worst of beasts in God’s eyes are those who misbelieve and will not believe;

In the hadiths, on the other hand, there are numerous refereces both to severe punishment in this life, as well as references to executions or other severe reactions to murtadds in the times of the early Muslims.
Muhammad is said to have ordered the killing of anyone leaving Islam, Ali is reported to have burned murtadds, and A'isha is said to have commanded the slaying, crucifixion or banishment of murtadds.

Bukhari, Volume 9, Book 83
17God's Apostle said, The blood of a Muslim [...] cannot be shed except [...] the one who reverts from Islam and leaves the Muslims...
Bukhari, vol. 9, book 84
58... He was a Jew and became a Muslim and then reverted back to Judaism." [...] Mu'adh said, "I will not sit down till he has been killed. This is the judgment of God and His Apostle and repeated it three times. Then Abu Musa ordered that the man be killed, and he was killed ...

With all schools of Sharia, the regulations declare that a male murtadd must be killed, while a woman is to be imprisoned until she returns to the faith. While this regulation is rarely carried out in most modern Muslim communities, that does not mean it is an abandoned regulation. With some exceptions, it would be indicative of the reason why few Muslims risk their lives going public with their new non-Muslim conviction.
The concept of ridda has in modern times been expanded to include disloyalty or blasphemous acts, meaning that a Muslim can both remain Muslim and still be defined as a murtadd. Depending on the seriousness of this disloyalty or blashemy, it may be punished as severely as regular ridda.

Islam’s Treatment Converts From and TO Other Religions,

Islam and Christianity are touted to be Religions of Equality and their oft touted USP is that all are treated equally in their religions.

I know for a fact that Those who convert to Christianity are not treated equally.

We do witness special Churches for the converts , especially for those from the SC ,ST community.

There are also instances in Tamil Nadu where the Dalit Christians(how they remain Dalits after Joining Christianity I can not fathom!) have revolted against the Church for not treating them equally with others.

One also witnesses the specter of severe infighting for plum post in Churches like the CSI between the Sc/ST Group and the others!

.Normally the former hold all posts.

A Syrian Christian from Kerala would never dream of allowing matrimony with the other groups.

Not to forget the Protestant and Catholic feuds.

For a religion of equality and tolerance, you have so many divisions among them one is at a loss to keep track of them!

Roman Catholics,Syrian Christian,Greek Orthodox,Armenia,Protestantism,s,Anglicanism, Pentecostalism,Seventh day Adventists,Calvinism.....

Islam is no different.

Shia, Sunni takes the cake.

They fight each other more than with others.

Even the mosques are separate for Converts.

the same problem with SC/ST converts.

Like Christians they would not marry with them.

I was curious whether my impressions are biased and checked the internet.

This is the result.
