A 2013 poll by Pew Research found that 41% of Iraqi Muslims favor the death penalty for people who leave Islam. Among the 39 nations with large Muslim populations where Pew conducted this survey, Iraq is the only one that is subject to Trump's temporary entry ban. This survey was not conducted in nations "where political sensitivities or security concerns prevented opinion research among Muslims." In the 38 surveyed nations not subject to Trump's temporary ban, the portion of Muslims who favor the death penalty for leaving Islam ranged from 1% in Albania to 88% in Egypt.
