The question was ''Is there death for an apostasy in Islam''. The answer is quite simply, yes. The qur'an is pretty vague on what should be done with an apostate, so Islamic scholars often debate whether the qur'an prescribes death for apostates. But the most authentic Islamic hadith's are very specific;
Bukhari, volume 9, #17
"Narrated Abdullah: Allah's Messenger said, "The blood of a Muslim who confesses that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I am His Messenger, cannot be shed except in three cases: in Qisas (equality in punishment) for murder, a married person who commits illegal sexual intercourse and the one who reverts from Islam (Apostate) and leaves the Muslims."
Bukhari, volume 9, #57
Narrated Ikrima, "Some atheists were brought to Ali and he burnt them. The news of this event, reached Ibn Abbas who said, "If I had been in his place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah's messenger forbade it, saying, "Do not punish anybody with Allah's punishment (fire)." I would have killed them according to the statement of Allah's Messenger, "Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him."
Narrated Abu Bruda, "Abu Musa said.....Behold there was a fettered man beside Abu Musa. Muadh asked, "Who is this (man)?" Abu Musa said, "He was a Jew and became a Muslim and hen reverted back to Judaism." Then Abu Musa requested Muadh to sit down but Muadh said, "I will not sit down till he has been killed. This is the judgment of Allah and his messenger," and repeated it thrice. Then Abu Musa ordered that the man be killed, and he was killed. Abu Musa added, "Then we discussed the night prayers .....

Does Islam condone apostasy?
Apostasy is forbidden in Islam. All apostates, those who chose apostasy, are the same as the unbelievers and all of them are vulnerable to the next Muslim bombing. Most Muslim scholars and jurists agree that the punishment for apostasy is death. Countries such as Iran and Saudi Arabia institute the death penalty for those who have left Islam i.e. apostates. The origin of this arbitrary and violent law is credited to Muhammad's fear of losing control over his followers. If they were to fear apostasy at the hands of death they would not question is totalitarian and irrational will.

Conversion from Islam to another religion is not recognized, and no data was available to assess if any such conversions took place.

Converts may be persuaded to return to Islam, may conceal their new faith, or may travel to another country where their conversion is recognized to avoid the social stigma of converting from Islam to another religion.

Were the 9 11 attacks apostasy?
No, it was religious fanaticism. Apostasy means going away from the "true religion" - that is, from whatever somebody believes to be the "true religion". Thus, apostasy might be changing from Christianity to Islam, or the other way around (depending on whom you ask). The 9/11 attacks had nothing to do with this. ********************* Some form of apostasy has been taking place since Cain rebelled against God, so any act that is contrary to the teachings of the true religion can be called a apostasy. The 9.11 cannot be called a true apostasy, though some would argue that it was as it was as it involved violence against ones fellow man. I suggest it may be called a rebellion against authority.
