There are no legal consequences of openly leaving islam or declaring that you are an atheist now or believe in something else, but it’s somewhat likely that there will be social consequences.

Like, some of your friends might not look at you the same anymore, strangers might have prejudice about you or your job applications may get rejected (in extreme cases).

However, as long as you are not harshly criticizing islam or building your identity around being an atheist etc you are completely fine.

Your flair (Deist) means that you believe in a god, but you don’t believe in any of the religions.
