16:39, 23 June 2019Thumbnail for version as of 16:39, 23 June 2019863 × 443 (1.6 MB)MonsterHunter32There is no law in Egypt giving death for apostasy, although some interpret it can be since Sharia is considered the principal source of legislation per article 2 of the constitution. But such a precedent of trying to use it hasn't ever occurred. Apostates have been punished under Article 98 (f) without any executions. (https://www.heritage.org/civil-society/report/religious-freedom-egypt). Library of Congress cites a 2007 case where a former Muslim was punished for conversion.
16:21, 23 June 2019Thumbnail for version as of 16:21, 23 June 2019863 × 443 (1.6 MB)MonsterHunter32Indonesia allows conversions but proselytization especially among muslims is illegal. Please read Refworld's reports (https://www.refworld.org/docid/45f1474911.html, https://www.refworld.org/pdfid/4b6fe1f00.pdf).
11:02, 19 May 2019Thumbnail for version as of 11:02, 19 May 2019863 × 443 (1.59 MB)MonsterHunter32Apologies the USCIRF report states Ahmadis can't seek converts in Pakistan, doesn't mention any specific faith like Muslims.
09:48, 19 May 2019Thumbnail for version as of 09:48, 19 May 2019863 × 443 (1.59 MB)MonsterHunter32Morocco doesn't punish apostasy despite the ulema fatwa in 2013. Do not know if the fatwas are legally enforced in Morocco but it was later reversed by the council. Proselytizing however is still a crime. Please read Humanist International's report (https://fot.humanists.international/countries/africa-northern-africa/morocco/#Apostasy_and_non-religion_under_the_law).

The constitution guarantees religious freedom, no actual apostasy law which Library of Congress exists specifically stated. However Ahmadis can't proselytize.
