In the Qur'an 2:256 it says:
"Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from Error: whoever rejects evil and believes in Allah hath grasped the most trustworthy hand-hold, that never breaks. And Allah heareth and knoweth all things."
Nobody can force anyone to believe. If they want to leave Islam, that's their business.
Unfortunately, there are some fanatics who think they have to kill apostates. Depending on where you live, if you leave Islam you could be in danger.
Most Muslims, however, would probably leave that person alone and pray for them.

It's a duty of other muslim to persuade him not to leave islam. but if he/him still to leave islam, there is no other choice is to get him dead without waiting. Lesson to others was; once you're a muslim you've to follow the rules of Islam. Islam is the way of life. To live is to die but be prepared for it.

The same thing that happens to Christians who quit being Christian, or to Jews who quit being Jewish.
True Islam is a very tolerant, respectful, and peaceful religion. The problem is with the radical extremist groups, which are analogous to cults. If you're talking about what happens if someone were to leave a radical extremest group...well...I suppose that depends on the group. Some may simply be ignored. Others may be hunted down for their "betrayal". Hard to say, really.

Geist,
Not only am I an apostate from Islam, I am a pagan.
*looks down, checks heart rate*
And I'm still alive.
All the best,

They tend to go join an equally silly religion that is not even based on the Word of God. All religions are man made, the Bible is God's word.

The guy above me said it best "nothing matters"....
So the believers are free to maim and kill the one who left the faith without any recriminations. they are also free to exact whatever revenge they deem necessary to any bystanders that may have contributed.
