Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنه (S42) Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وتَعَالَى has said: “For a believing servant, when I take away someone beloved to him from this world, I will grant him nothing other than Paradise”. (To be entitled to this, one must expect reward and be patient). Apostasy has been greatly misunderstood in Islam: Apostates may only be killed if they are treacherous to the Islamic state - them leaving Islam is not the reason they are killed. Female apostates can not be killed whatsoever. (Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه took care of this matter - not killing them). Umar رضي الله عنه heard of some men who had left Islam, and joined the Kuffar to fight the Muslims, and they died. He رضي الله عنه still said he would’ve given them 3 days to repent, and if they chose to remain disbelievers he still wouldn’t have killed them. Thus: it is not due to the fact that people leave Islam they are killed. They are only killed if once they leave, they cause havoc, they poison the people and attack the Islamic state.
