People Who Left Islam

Here at WikiIslam, we document the news of Muslims leaving Islam and host hundreds of written testimonies. (Add your testimony.)

Introduction

Muslims often advertise news of non-Muslims converting to Islam, but they don't tell the other side of the story, where Muslims are also leaving Islam. There are more Muslims leaving Islam today than there are new converts joining it. The sheer volume of recent apostates is unprecedented in the history of Islam.

"We have churches that have grown 802%. Many converts have come from Islam with no Christian heritage, no Christian background, no resources whatsoever, no training. But they just believe in God and His Word...In every village and every town there are Christians, and there are churches,..In one town, actually there are more churches than mosques, which is a big miracle to happen in the Middle East...I know of many, many churches today who baptize about 120 to 150 every year. I have never been to a church in the west or anywhere in the world where the church is already packed 2 1/2 hours before the meeting." That's happening in Algeria.
