This is an interesting article which comes out of Meriam Yehya Ibrahim being sentenced to whipping and death in Sudan. I am not 100% sure about the source, some kind of Christian Zionist paper, but I have heard of quite a few of the cases.
"Tragic as this story is, it is also immensely commonplace in Islamic countries. Why? Because Islamic law does in fact punish the apostate from Islam—including with death—in accordance with the commands of the Muslim prophet Muhammad. Indeed, many Muslim clerics believe that “If the [death] penalty for apostasy was ignored, there would not be an Islam today; Islam would have ended on the death of the prophet,” as top Sheikh Yusuf Qaradawi once declared on live television.Of more significance is the Amnesty International statement concerning Meriam Ibrahim’s plight.
