Quote:In Islam, the munafiqun ('hypocrites', Arabic: منافقون, singular منافق munāfiq) were a group decried in the Quran as outward Muslims who were secretly unsympathetic to the cause of Muslims and actively sought to undermine the Muslim community. The hypocrisy itself is called nifāq (نفاق).
The verse is speaking about a destructive behavior also known as hypocrisy, to be traitor from the inside but claim to be an ally from the outside.
AKA treason.
Again, the article describes them as:
"Hypocrisy towards God regarding actual faith."
Imagine hypocrisy toward god or
Hypocrisy towards the tenets of faith: for example, somebody may believe in God, Judgment Day, accounting, scales of deeds and Hellfire, but not fear them at all or not refrain from committing sins because of them. Yet he claims, "I fear God."
If somebody is different religion or is pretending to be your religion but is not, in normal world this is not treason and not something to be killed for.

It extends to years and years in a concrete box.
Calm down man, really. Take Winona Ryder who was caught shoplifting in 2001 and she did some community service, payed some fines, went to some counseling and now has a normal, productive, life - something that she would not have if it was up to Koran.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
