A muslim friend of mine got engaged to a christian guy and she plans to convert to christianity. She is terrified of getting killed by her family or extremists. You think that's possible, and if yes, what do you suggest she does? She's moving to Spain btw.

It is a valid concern for her and I really hope that she gets somewhere safe soon. I suggest that if at all possible, as soon as she gets to where she is moving that she alert local law enforcement to the possibility of a retaliation from her family. I don't know what that will do for her over in Spain, maybe they can help her to do something. Wow, your friend is really brave, I hope that everything goes well for her and I will pray for her and her fiancee, too.

It is possible. Many times in the middle east, muslims have been killed for deciding to convert to Christianity. A brother once killed a girl when he secretly found out form a friend she was thinking about converting. I highly suggest she moves to Spain, or another Christian country in Europe or the USA. I respect all people's belifs, but (at least now) Christian nations are generally safer and give you more religious freedom.

Spain u say eh? thanks for telling me...
As a muslim no I wuld not kill her but I as sure damn pissed. The wonderful thing bout islam that noone sees cuz of all the media and extremist and stuff like that is that it is a religion that promotes peace. Ur probabaly wondering WTF??? well its tru and there is just chaos in the muslim world...
one thing which pple must understand is that in our religion Sucide if forbidden, suicide straight to hell.... yet extremists always do it. If u study islamic history in around the Salahuddin times, the armies were great and conquered almost all of the western world. The fighters were willing to die in war- the ultimate sacrifice as said " sins of the martyr are forgiven before the blood touches the floor". But they would not go run into the battlefield and try to get killed. Neways im gettin carried on here, but my point is that many Americans think muslim = terrorism when it really is not...
As for ur friend, tell her if she really was a muslim to begin with, There is no flippin way she would leave it to marry some christian guy, no offense. Tell her to talk to a religious scholar not some random muslim guy before she does it, cuz im pretty sure she is not completely educated on muslim regulations and if she was she would not leave it...

Family is more dangerous then extremists. I mean if she's moving how would they ever know she'd been muslim. The family does such things to pprevent dishonor on the household. She knows her family better than I, but she should be abe to straighten them out, plus again they're moving. It's a good thing she's becoming a Christian, and congrats on the marriage.
Insane behavior like this is why we're at war by the way, she should bever have to be scared of such things.

i imagine all variations of sharia regulation say that is what's to be executed .. in protecting with some verses in the Koran about it being a blessed component to kill an apostate. The sharia regulation replaced into drawn up through many thoughtful specialists, thinking the Koran and ahadith. So it should be what the religion teaches. i do not understand what's practiced though. really I have heard of Afghan converts being threatened with lack of existence, and would anticipate the shortcoming of existence penalty in Saudi for converts, besides the indisputable fact that the more desirable civilised Islamic international locations would disallow it in regulation a minimum of.

No, Islam doesnt say the person has to be killed for converting to another religion from Muslim.

I think it might be possible.
And the Jews say: Uzair is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!
Sura 9:30
"Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection."
Sura 9:29
Im pretty sure it's possible. I suggest she tries to explain and make peace...but dunno that will work : ( i guess, when all fails, just pray...

everybody have rights to change there religious. a muslim girls is not supposed to marry a non-muslim man. if she has married then she is out of religious now. since her familly so sensitive they could not tolleret it. so people they go to extreme activities. ask her to be away from her family. she can escape from the family not from god she has to answer for the conversion in religious after she die. ask her to think and decide
