It is difficult for most religions to accept de-conversions. The Bible has many warnings against people who drift from Christianity or are apostates. Mormons totally cut off any contact from former Mormons who denounce their beliefs.

Conversion from Islam to another religion carries the death penalty. What a way to keep the people in line !! The Saudis now call converts " reverts ". Perhaps they should check the meaning before they start bastardising someone elses language.

Churches are not allowed in Saudi, cos the Authorities know most of the Muslims would convert to Christianity, cos it offers greater freedom.

God is the deity believed by monotheists to be the supreme reality. He is believed variously to be the creator, or at least the sustainer, of the universe. [1]

Theologians and philosophers have ascribed a number of attributes to God, including omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence, perfect goodness, divine simplicity, and eternal and necessary existence. He has been described as incorporeal, a personal being, the source of all moral obligation, and the greatest conceivable existent. [1] These attributes were all supported to varying degrees by the early Jewish, Christian and Muslim scholars, including St Augustine, [2] Al-Ghazali, [3] and Maimonides. [2] Freud regarded this view of God as wish fulfillment for the perfect father figure, [3] while Marxist writers see it as rooted in the powerlessness experienced by men and women in oppressive societies.

All the great medieval philosophers developed arguments for the existence of God, [3] attempting to wrestle with the contradictions God's attributes appear to imply. For example, God's omniscience implies that he knows how free agents will choose to act. If he does know this, their apparent freewill is illusory; and if he does not know it, he is not omniscient. [4] Similar difficulties follow from the proposition that God is the source of all moral obligation. If nothing would be right or wrong without God's commands, then his commands appear arbitrary. If his commands are based on fundamental principles that even he cannot change, then he is not omnipotent. [5]

The last few hundred years of philosophy have seen sustained attacks on the ontological, cosmological, and teleological arguments for God's existence. Against these, theists (or fideists) argue that faith is not a product of reason, but requires risk. There would be no risk, they say, if the arguments for God's existence were as solid as the laws of logic, a position famously summed up by Pascal as: "The heart has reasons which reason knows not of." [6]

Altough a "god" is part of many religions in the world, it is mostly seen as a mere metaphor for an omnipotent power (which might control destiny, nature, a.o. - depending on the religion

Salam (Peace)!
Thanks for presenting this question. Look at it this way, since for us Islam is the only true religion, it is difficult to accept our own brothers and sisters leave the truth and go astray (which is very rare). God of everyone is just One God and to leave Islam is to betray God (Allah) and His Messenger. The Muslim who usually leaves Islam is because he/she was raised with culture and not religion or that he/she was raised with non-practicing and extremely strict people or society. If anyone lives around true Muslims (those who truly follow Islam), they will not ever leave Islam. Instead, they will be filled with hope, inspiration and motivation to become even better.
I hope i answered you well, inshallah (God Willing).
Take care!

Thanks For Your Question :)

Well many in Islam think that when a person converts from Islam he must be killed but that is wrong there is no such thing in Islam infact God says in the Quraan : "There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong path."

And say: "The truth is from your Lord." Then whosoever wills, let him believe, and whosoever wills, let him disbelieve."

I think it is picture clear now , and if you still have any question about Islam please feel free to contact me on abouterachess.yahoo.com

i assume, your mom and father desires to comprehend greater approximately Islam, and what it supplies then asserting no to you for no longer starting to be a Muslim. it somewhat is complicated because of the fact your mom and father don't comprehend lots approximately our faith, that's Islam. in case you like the religion. I say, choose for it.

Because, they can't face the fact that there is something wrong with that religion. Can't quite put a finger on it.
