I was a SALAFI, a more strict side of Sunnism, and i studied the big scholars like Ibn Tayymiyah, and prayed more than 5 times a day, throughout the night in Ramadhaan.
    I feel safe here, in this comment section and these videos because it's very hostile out there. I used to look up to Ali Dawah, Mohammed Hijab, Hamza Tzortzis, used to watch them all the time as my main online community. My dad is abusive and religious, my mom is extremely religious and very emotionally fragile, and my brother is getting his head filled with so much nonsense when he hangs out with the muslim adult men, one of them an extremist. It's a very tight community here. At least I'm not in a muslim country, but I feel soooo misunderstood. I won't always be silent though.

      It's quite the opposite. I've seen tons of arguments from Ex-Muslims already. To be honest, all of them were trash and could easily be refuted if they actually study and contemplate. Most of them left because of emotional reasons, and some are logical but flawed. They left because of they are fed by the western standards, and they deem their standard to be their god. I've even doubted Islam once. It took me prolly 2 months of dispute, research, then dispute again, then research. I came into the conclusion that philosophy and some knowledge about history was the key. I was right all along that it wasn't Islam the problem, it was my worldview.

      In reality Today's Muslims are Descendants of Slaves used as Disposable Army and for prostitution back in 1400 years. These slaves carried this slave(Islam) culture along with them wherever the went for loot and attack. And imposed that slave Culture on the Native people they captured and made them their Slaves.
      ISLAM - contract of Slavery created by Arab slave traders.(the oath been taken as confirmation when new slave has been added)
      Muslim - Are the Slave.
      Allah - The Arab Slaves master Is Allah ( slaves used to call them Allah(lord) because of fear of punishment and death). The slave master could be Christianity origin(jibril/Gabriel also a messenger in relation with Muhammad). Historically the Slave Owners the one who wanted their slaves to call them Lord(meaning God)
      The Messenger - (slave masters never used to visit slaves directly) is the Broker or Manager of the Slaves. Who used to implement rules on slaves what is known as "Quran"
      Kafirs - the captured people who doesn't accept slavery(islam)
      Murtadd - those who try to escape from slavery or fail to obey the order(according to Quran(the slave rule book)).
      Pagans - the idol worshipping tribes.
      Halal - Rules and practices limited/allowed by their masters to Slaves and to Captured slaves(Tribal people who used to eat pig and dead animals by giving sacrifice to stone god).
      Ghilman - Slave soldiers used to attack other tribes and culture .
      Concubine - a slave-woman with whom her master/manager engaged in sexual relations.
      Hoors - Sex slaves.
      Jizya - the tax to pay the slave master if the pagan(native tribes) don't want to become slaves and Practice their kind of stone worship.
      Jihad - Creating Fear in Tribes by killing and creating chaos.
      Sharia - low of punishment for slaves.
      Islam spread through violence and slavery is the evidence. (read Hadith and connect it with Quran with deep understanding)
      It becomes religion due to politics and Ignorance.
      Today the manager are in the form of Moulvies/Scholars. The follovers are brainless puppet Muslims 90% are ignorant because they didn'tread and Understood it by themselves using original text.what a tragedy.
      Islam is the Biggest fraud happened to their followers for centuries without realization.
      Leaving Islam is the righteous path which will lead them out of 1400 year long slavery.
      WITHOUT LIES ISLAM DIES. spread this truth

      I could argue your comment only serves to make you feel better - a self-pandering animalistic desire typical of many religious people.
      To be atheist is sometimes to be free to define your own level of morality. That might seem scary in our big bad world but actually it works surprisingly well.
      Have a think about the humans who wrote these religious scriptures, they helped light a path for other humans to help them understand why certain moral structures are necessary for survival, and they have helped people for thousands of years. In today’s age not everyone requires those texts in order to live free from disease, excess instantly gratifying sensory pleasure, wastefulness, greed and wasted emotion, etc.
      At the risk of sounding pompous; I give my time and money to the needy, I do not harm creatures weaker than me unless I intend on eating them, I was married young and do not intend on ever having another partner, I work hard and honestly for the sake of my honour and to help my company, the community and the country. I do not need any of the gods in order to do what I believe is just, and my definition of that comes from a very many sources combined with my understanding of them through scientifically processing their teachings; logical analysis, benchmarking and application.
      I don’t have all the answers, but my greatest hero Marcus Aurelius gives me great hope in human kind, even though he of course had his polytheistic beliefs as all did in his time.
      All the best.

Believe in whatever you want, just don’t push it on others. I’ve been an atheist since I was 17, I’m now 34.

      The real reason why some people can't fathom that you have no faith is because to them faith is their social security. People belonging to a community help and protect each other. This is also the reason why it can be hard for parents to hear. Faith is never about what you really believe philosophically - not really - it's all about whether you're willing to play the part so that others will protect you when necessary as you would protect them.

      In reality Today's Muslims are Descendants of Slaves used as Disposable Army and for prostitution back in 1400 years. These slaves carried this slave(Islam) culture along with them wherever the went for loot and attack. And imposed that slave Culture on the Native people they captured and made them their Slaves.
      ISLAM - contract of Slavery created by Arab slave traders.(the oath been taken as confirmation when new slave has been added)
      Muslim - Are the Slave.
      Allah - The Arab Slaves master Is Allah ( slaves used to call them Allah(lord) because of fear of punishment and death). The slave master could be Christianity origin(jibril/Gabriel also a messenger in relation with Muhammad). Historically the Slave Owners the one who wanted their slaves to call them Lord(meaning God)
      The Messenger - (slave masters never used to visit slaves directly) is the Broker or Manager of the Slaves. Who used to implement rules on slaves what is known as "Quran"
      Kafirs - the captured people who doesn't accept slavery(islam)
      Murtadd - those who try to escape from slavery or fail to obey the order(according to Quran(the slave rule book)).
      Pagans - the idol worshipping tribes.
      Halal - Rules and practices limited/allowed by their masters to Slaves and to Captured slaves(Tribal people who used to eat pig and dead animals by giving sacrifice to stone god).
      Ghilman - Slave soldiers used to attack other tribes and culture .
      Concubine - a slave-woman with whom her master/manager engaged in sexual relations.
      Hoors - Sex slaves.
      Jizya - the tax to pay the slave master if the pagan(native tribes) don't want to become slaves and Practice their kind of stone worship.
      Jihad - Creating Fear in Tribes by killing and creating chaos.
      Sharia - low of punishment for slaves.
      Islam spread through violence and slavery is the evidence. (read Hadith and connect it with Quran with deep understanding)
      It becomes religion due to politics and Ignorance.
      Today the manager are in the form of Moulvies/Scholars. The follovers are brainless puppet Muslims 90% are ignorant because they didn'tread and Understood it by themselves using original text.what a tragedy.
      Islam is the Biggest fraud happened to their followers for centuries without realization.
      Leaving Islam is the righteous path which will lead them out of 1400 year long slavery.
      WITHOUT LIES ISLAM DIES. spread this truth
      #Ex-Muslims
      Today Many Arabs, Pakistanis, Kerala, Malaysian and intelligent people around the world are leaving Islam after realizing the truth.

No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, 'If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.' "
      Sahih Bukhari 4:52:260
      Narrated 'Ikrima: Some Zanadiqa (atheists) were brought to 'Ali and he burnt them. The news of this event, reached Ibn 'Abbas who said, "If I had been in his place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah's Apostle forbade it, saying, 'Do not punish anybody with Allah's punishment (fire).' I would have killed them according to the statement of Allah's Apostle, 'Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.'"
      Sahih Bukhari 9:84
      It was narrated from Abu Umamah bin Sahl bin Hunaif that: `Uthman bin 'Affan looked at them when they spoke of killing. He said: “Are they kill threatening to kill me? Why would they kill me? I heard the Messenger of Allah say: “It is not lawful to shed the blood of a Muslim except in one of three (cases): a man who commits adultery when he is a married person, then he should be stoned; a man who kills a soul not in retaliation for murder; and a man who apostatizes after becoming Muslim.' By Allah (SWT), I never committed adultery either during Ignorance days nor in Islam, and I have never killed a Muslim soul, and I have not apostatized since I became Muslim.” (Sahih)
      Sunan Ibn Majah 3:20:2533
      It was narrated from 'Abdullah, who is Ibn Mas`ud, that the Messenger of Allah said: “It is not lawful to shed the blood of a Muslim who bears witness that none has the right to be worshiped but Allah (SWT), and that I am the Messenger of Allah, except in one of three cases: a soul for a soul; a married person who commits adultery, and one who leaves his religion and splits from the Jama`ah.” (Sahih)

      It was narrated from Ibn`Abbas that the Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever changes his religion, execute him.” (Sahih)

      Abu Dawud
      Narrated Mu'adh ibn Jabal: AbuMusa said: Mu'adh came to me when I was in the Yemen. A man who was Jew embraced Islam and then retreated from Islam. When Mu'adh came, he said: I will not come down from my mount until he is killed. He was then killed. One of them said: He was asked to repent before that.
      Sunan Abu Dawud 38:
      Hanafi - recommends three days of imprisonment before execution, although the delay before killing the Muslim apostate is not mandatory. Apostates who are men must be killed, states the Hanafi Sunni fiqh, while women must be held in solitary confinement and beaten every three days till they repent and return to Islam. Penalty for Apostasy limited for those who cause Hirabah after leaving Islam, not for personal religion change.
      Maliki - allows up to ten days for recantation, after which the apostate must be killed. Both men and women apostates deserve death penalty according to the traditional view of Sunni Maliki fiqh.
      Shafi'i - waiting period of three days is required to allow the Muslim apostate to repent and return to Islam. After the wait, execution is the traditional recommended punishment for both men and women apostates.
      Hanbali - waiting period not necessary, but may be granted. Execution is traditional recommended punishment for both genders of Muslim apostates

What of the time God instructed the Israelites to wipe the Amelekites off the land? Every man, woman, child and animal. This same God also killed a couple in the new testament for lying. It makes me wonder if this God portrayed is truly evil. What I've discovered is the God in the old and new testament is the same person. The difference is the time frame of the old testament and the new testament(which is still in play if the bible is true). A pattern I noticed though is that he only punished people after they had entered a covenant and broke it. He doesn't just let sin slide. He always gives a window of mercy and exacts judgement but only for a while. My answer isn't satisfactory but I can't think straight right now as I'm writing this, as always I like to drop videos that can answer this particular question to the best extent I've seen so far.
      I've decided to trust this God because of strange stuff I've experienced both anecdotal and within groups of people. As a skeptical person I find it really hard not to believe he doesn't exist anymore.

    I left Islam in 2001. For me, the most dismaying thing I've had to deal with since then are segments of progressives/liberals/the left etc. in the Western world. Not all of them - thank god - but a big chunk. It honestly reminds me of The Upside Down - the alternate dimension existing in parallel to the human world - that is depicted in the Netflix show Stranger Things. So many of these people who champion the separation of religion and state, gender equality and gay rights are not only silent about the horrific, almost medieval, treatment of women, gay people and ex-Muslims in Islam and the Muslim world, they attack you for criticising or even questioning Islam. I've been told I'm a racist! Honestly, one doesn't know where to start with such an attack. 'Um, yeah, so not only is Islam not a race/ethnicity, I'm an Arab, so, who exactly am I racist against again?' Blacks, whites etc., who are on the left and/or who call themselves 'progressive' are the actual racists (and bah-sic AF). Their worldview can be summed up as follows: white, Christian, jew (powerful, bad) v black or other-non-white, Muslim (victim, good).

      You make perfect sense. Muslims are in a deep deep slumber and they need to be woken up.
      I'm a Christian and many people tell me it's a waste of time to show the Muslims their misconception about.... Everything and anything. Not just Bible (you know, they can't even read it for themselves, they can only copy paste chopped up Bible verses) but also e.g. science. Yes I'm also a scientist in the natural field....
      Most of the time it does seem to be a waste of time, but maybe, just maybe every now and then there is a Muslim actually asking himself if what he believes is true or not. And in that time period he will seek out answers from other sources. And at this time we must provide then with the right and true answer.

    I am an ex-muslim but I gotta say I was a bit more lucky than these brave souls that came out in the video or in the comments because I'm living in Turkey, a secular country with a majority muslim population. I still didn't come out to my family but all of my friends in school know that I am an atheist and I don't get any legal issues about it which is insane to many of my fellow ex-muslims. I am forever thankful to my country's founder, Atatürk, which turned the theocratic monarchy which was the ottoman empire into the modern Turkey that is a secular republic which is a HUGE accomplishment. Of course we have our fair share of religious groups trying to oppress the non-muslims, namely the current government and also religious groups that want to bring the sharia law here but they are mostly unefficient. I hope all these islamic countries can have their own revolution someday and set themselves free from the chains of the oppressive laws of sharia. And I wish the best for all the ex-muslims that saw the flaws of this religion and that are on their way to become better versions of themselves.

But I'd say it doesn't really feel all that bad now compared to when I first left Islam. It surely makes you feel better to dig deeper and find more flaws and be proud of yourself that you managed to achieve something like this.

    As someone who is Muslim, not as strict practicing, I agree wholeheartedly that ex-muslims are treated beyond unfairly. Do not judge ones journey. I repeat and am best friend with an ex-Muslim. There’s nothing wrong with practicing said religion or any others. Just don’t be abrasive and push your beliefs onto another. Idk why people get so angry about one leaving another religion.

    I come from a Coptic Family who taught me the faith, the rules but the main one always love and never be selfish. My mom raised me by telling me the stories but never forced it on me, she believes that if you force it on your kids, they will leave. I did my experimentation, read my Bible and learned about other faiths. I was losing faith and wondered towards more scientific atheism and even told my mom but I got back and I'm happily practicing my Coptic Faith. The freedom and free will had given me the room to find the love God has to offer and I'm more Coptic than ever.
