If one were to review the Book and the Sunnah, one would find that Islam has determined these vital issues in an explicit manner and that it has also determined the compulsory measures towards them as being a matter of life and death. Islam has for instance considered apostasy from Islam, be it by an individual or a group, as a vital issue and has made the measure undertaken towards it one of life and death, that is either the guilty would repent or face death. Hence, Islam has determined the issue and also the measure. The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: He who changes his Deen must be killed. It is also reported on the authority of ibn Masud who said: The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: The blood of a Muslim person who professes that there is no god but Allah and that I am the messenger of Allah is not violable except in three instances: the adulterer, the slayer of another person and the apostate who abandons the group. This issue was to the Muslim a dominant concept and a fact which they firmly adhered to.
