And here is some more for your reading pleasure ...

During Muhammad's lifetime, and the lifetimes of the next 4 "Rightly Guided
Caliphs", a number of Muslims left the faith of Islam. The punishment for
leaving Islam was death. Those that had left the faith were either killed
outright, or were given a few days to turn back to Islam. If they persisted
in leaving Islam they were put to death. This death sentence is in effect
whether or not the apostasy occurred in an Islamic state or not.

One of the more controversial topics for Muslims in the West is the
punishment for apostasy from Islam. Muslims living in the Mideast have no
problem with the concept of putting apostates to death.
