Why not? By law he is.

Now, answer my question: Make your case citing Sharia Law why Obama needs to die.
I'll do better.
"Whosoever turns back from his belief (irtada), openly or secretly, take him and kill him wheresoever ye find him, like any other infidel". Verse [Qur'an 4:88]
In any case the heart of the matter is that children born of Muslim lineage will be considered Muslims and according to Islamic law the door of apostasy will never be opened to them. If anyone of them renounces Islam, he will be as deserving of execution as the person who has renounced kufr to become a Muslim and again has chosen the way of kufr. All the jurists of Islam agree with this decision. On this topic absolutely no difference exists among the experts of shari'ah.

Do you know an actual Muslim who says these ridiculous things that you're attributing to them?
I should add that even if Obama's father were a Muslim (he was an atheist), and even if you choose the most conservative interpretation of Islamic law possible, it's completely nullified due to the fact that his father left him and his mother (so religious jurisdiction defaults to her, a non-Muslim).

So I was right?
His father, Hussein Onyango Obama (c. 1895-1979),[1] belonged to the Luo tribe. Before working as a cook for missionaries in Nairobi, Onyango had travelled widely, enlisting in the British colonial forces during World War I and visiting Europe, India, and Zanzibar, where he converted from Christianity to Islam and added Hussein to his name.
Sorry misread it at first, in any case his father is considered a Muslim by law.

What are you talking about? That's Obama's grandfather.

Sorry misread the wiki at first, I'm gald to know my original information was correct despite what some claimed.
BTW His father could not legally leave Islam. It is a well established fact that there is no legal way to leave Islam. You can only leave Islam if you somehow manage to convince the Judge you where never really Muslim, and only if you converted to it from another faith, not if you where born into Islam, and again that is a very very liberal interpretation, it makes news when it happens.

Yes I do, and its in the original post.
The 20th century theologian Abul Ala Maududi
And yes it is nonsense but it is a mainstream part of Islam.

BTW Should Obama deny he ever was a Moslem (which I would be inclined to belive), it will compound the problem in the eyes of Moslems. He was born of a Moslem father, raised by a Moslem stepfather, and received his first education at a Moslem school. That he later went to a Catholic school in Jakarta before living with his mother’s parents back in Honolulu makes little difference. In the eyes of Sharia and most belivers, he originally was a Moslem. How can they not consider him such in those eyes, with a Koranic first name and his middle name that of the grandson of Mohammed?

In Iran you can be an active muslim and convert to christianity, if you don't go shouting about it you won't get any problems from the authorities
Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.
Douglas Adams (Influential author)
And yes it is nonsense but it is a mainstream part of Islam.
I was speaking, personally. That's the argument, after all. Not what some fringe whackjob believes, but how Muslims in general perceive his candidacy.
And I still don't see where he called Obama an apostate.
Again, do you personally know any Muslim who believes this nonsense?

You do realise how antithetical that is to freedom of religion? Its ok you can be a Christian just be quiet about it.
I'm sure in medeival Europe you could convert to Judaism, and if you didn't go around shouting about it you wouldn't get any problems from the authorities.

He didn't I was just attirbuting the quote to him, since you asked where the quote was from.
