If people are naturally inclined to believe in Islam, we would expect that most people would be Muslims, but it's not so. This is from 2010: <ref>https://www.pewforum.org/2012/12/18/global-religious-landscape-exec/</ref> | |||

Only 23.2% are Muslims and the remaining 76.8% are kuffar, so it seems being a kaafir is more fitrah than being a Muslim. Also it's necessary to acknowledge that the death penalty for leaving Islam can cause a lot of people to identify as Muslims without actually believing in it. | |||
Also if Islam was fitrah, we would expect that children born in Muslim families would naturally practice Islam and there wouldn't be a need to put pressure on them. But it's the exact opposite. Muslims are commanded to force their children into practicing Islam: | |||

Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As: | |||
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Command your children to pray when they become seven years old, and beat them for it (prayer) when they become ten years old; and arrange their beds (to sleep) separately. | |||
