-->'''Apostasy''' (ارتداد, irtidād and ridda), or leaving the religion, is a serious offense in [[Islam]]. The punishment for apostasy as prescribed by [[Muhammad]] and as delineated in all [[Madhhab|four schools]] of [[Islamic law]] is execution. One who commits apostasy is called a ''murtad'' (مرتد, or 'apostate). One who hides his apostasy is referred to as a ''munāfiq'' (منافق, or 'hypocrite').
