List of former Muslims

Former Muslims or ex-Muslims are people who were Muslims, but subsequently left Islam.

Although their numbers have increased, ex-Muslims still face ostracism or retaliation from their families and communities due to beliefs about apostasy in Islam.[1]

In 23 countries apostasy is a punishable crime and in 13 of those it carries the death penalty.[2]
