Welcome to The Ex-Muslim Commando Blog.
As someone who once lived, believed, and defended Islam, I now use this platform to reveal what many Muslims will never tell you the side of Islam hidden from the spotlight.
Exploring Religion: Why Many Seek More
At some point, many of us feel curious about other religions. We explore different beliefs, attend other religious services, and question our current faith. It's a natural part of human growth — to seek truth, purpose, and a better way of life.
But while most people freely explore spirituality, Islam discourages questioning and punishes dissent severely. As someone who was once inside, I can say this confidently — Islam doesn’t want you to question.
My Experience as a Former Muslim
I wasn’t just a casual follower. I lived it. I prayed five times daily, memorized Quranic verses, defended the faith, and even tried converting others.
But behind the scenes, I saw contradictions, fear-driven obedience, and a deep intolerance toward doubt or criticism. I’ve since left Islam, and I now want to share the 5 key reasons why I believe you should never become a Muslim — especially if you're exploring religions with an open mind.
1. Apostasy Laws: Death for Leaving
Islam is the only major religion in the world that prescribes the death penalty for those who leave the faith.
Other religions — Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism — allow followers to leave or question without fear of execution.
Here’s what the Quran says:
Surah An-Nisa 4:89
“...But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them...”
From the Hadith (Sahih Bukhari 52:260):
“Whoever discards his religion, kill him.”
Imagine joining a religion, only to realize later that leaving it could cost you your life. That’s not religion — that’s a prison.
2. Scientific Errors in the Quran
Islam claims the Quran is a miracle — scientifically accurate, flawless, and divine.
But is that true?
Let’s examine:
Quran 52:44
“We could cause a piece of the sky to fall upon them.”
This suggests the sky is a solid object. We now know the sky is simply an atmosphere — not something that can “fall.”
Quran 67:5
“We made the stars as missiles to drive away devils…”
This verse shows a scientific misunderstanding — confusing stars (massive celestial bodies) with meteorites.
Despite claims of scientific perfection, many verses in the Quran contradict well-established science. Apologists often say it’s “metaphorical,” but that explanation doesn’t hold up when comparing various Islamic interpretations.
3. Terrorism and Global Violence
Islam is often linked with global terrorism. While it's true that people from all backgrounds can commit violence, Islamic terrorism is uniquely common and justified using scripture.
We rarely hear of Christians bombing places while shouting “Hallelujah.” But time and again, Islamic terrorists yell “Allahu Akbar” as they strike.
Why? Because verses like these exist:
Surah At-Tawbah 9:29
“Fight those who do not believe in Allah…”
Surah At-Tahrim 66:9
“O Prophet, strive against the disbelievers and be harsh with them…”
Terrorists aren’t just misled — they often quote directly from their holy book. That’s a serious issue for any religion that claims to be about peace.
4. Restrictive, Harmful Teachings
Islam promotes many ideas that clash with modern ethics, science, and logic:
-
Drinking camel urine (reported in Sahih Hadith)
-
Banning music and art
-
Forbidding friendships with non-Muslims
-
Cutting off the hand of thieves
-
Promoting misogyny
-
Condemning drawing, singing, dancing
Other religions have their faults, but they don't impose this level of control over personal expression and daily life.
Islam doesn’t offer a better moral framework — in many cases, it undermines basic human rights in the name of “divine law.”
5. Unreasonable Laws and Harsh Punishments
Islam demands perfection:
-
Don’t listen to music
-
Don’t drink alcohol
-
Don’t eat pork
-
Don’t pee standing
-
Pray five times a day
-
Women must wear hijab
-
Every mistake earns hellfire
The constant fear of hell, guilt for natural desires, and obsession with rules turns life into a daily moral battlefield. It feels less like a religion and more like a dictatorship.
If you grew up in a free or secular society, ask yourself:
Do you want to live like you’re in North Korea?
Conclusion: Do Your Research Before You Join
Changing your religion can be a beautiful journey. But it must be based on truth, logic, and freedom — not fear, guilt, and blind obedience.
Islam presents itself as peaceful, moral, and scientific — but my personal experience and deep study suggest otherwise.
I advise you: Don’t become a Muslim.
And if you do — at least do so with full knowledge of what you're entering.
Because this is not a religion someone would wish for even their enemy.
