That is false. That Qur'an - Word of God - states otherwise. Also, questioning is good. As Muslims, we are encouraged by the Qur'an to investigate, acquire knowledge, and utilize the reason we've been given. So it's not wise to discourage that. Evidence that you're wrong about murdering Muslims who convert out:
"Say, 'The truth is from your Lord': Let him who will believe, and let him who will, reject (it)" (The Noble Quran, 18:29)
"Again and again will those who disbelieve, wish that they had bowed (to God's will) in Islam. Leave them alone, to enjoy (the good things of this life) and to please themselves: let (false) hope amuse them: soon will knowledge (undeceive them)." (The Noble Quran, 15:2-3)
"But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, and trust in God: for He is One that heareth and knoweth (all things)." (The Noble Quran, 8:61)
"God does not forbid you from showing kindness and dealing justly with those who have not fought you about religion and have not driven you out of your homes. God loves just dealers." (The Noble Quran, 60:8)
"And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for God. But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except against wrongdoers." (The Noble Quran 2:193)
The above verse shows that you fight until there is no more persecution and to not fight if they stop fighting, which means that we fight to end oppression, not to fight against those who are not harming us.
"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 handhold, that never breaks. And Allah heareth and knoweth all things." (The Noble Quran, 2:256)
There is no compulsion in religion. Those who incline towards truth are only helping themselves, those who do not are only harming themselves. That doesn't affect the Truth.
"Say: 'Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger: but if ye turn away, he is only responsible for the duty placed on him and ye for that placed on you. If ye obey him, ye shall be on right guidance. The Messenger's duty is only to preach the clear (Message)." (The Noble Quran, 24:54)
"Say : O ye that reject Faith! I worship not that which ye worship, Nor will ye worship that which I worship. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship, Nor will ye worship that which I worship. To you be your Way, and to me mine." (The Noble Quran, 109:1-6)
There are many, many other verses I can quote from the Qur'an that proves you wrong but I think this is more than sufficient.
. More trebling thing is the opinions and attitudes by some seemingly educated Somalis in the west who have the privilege to live in a civilized and tolerant world. Kii jaahilka ahaana maxaad ka filaysaa marka koodii wax bartayba taageerayo dilka aan sharciga ahayn, waalida iyo caqli xumada, no wonder Somalis find themselves where they are today.
