Pew survey from 2013

Nevertheless, in six of the 20 countries where there are adequate samples for analysis, at least half of those who favor making Islamic law the official law also support executing apostates.
Taking the life of those who abandon Islam is most widely supported in Egypt (86%) and Jordan (82%). Roughly two-thirds who want sharia to be the law of the land also back this penalty in the Palestinian territories (66%). In the other countries surveyed in the Middle East-North Africa region, fewer than half take this view.

In Afghanistan, a substantial minority of Muslims (39%) (my note, 39% of 30 million is 11.5 million) say that this form of violence (my note: Suicide bombing) against civilian targets is often or sometimes justifiable in defense of Islam. In Bangladesh, more than a quarter of Muslims (26%) (my note:38.5 million) take this view. Support for suicide bombing is lower in Pakistan (13%) (my note: 22.5 million).

In the countries surveyed in Central Asia and Southern and Eastern Europe, fewer than one-in-six Muslims consider suicide bombing justified in Turkey (15%), (my note, 15% of 75 million is 10.5 million), Kosovo (11%) and and Kyrgyzstan (10%).

In Egypt, about three-in-ten (29%) consider suicide bombing justified at least sometimes. (my note 22.6 million).

Indonesia has only a small percentage that does, 7%, which is about 14 million.

So based on those countries, 120 million believe that suicide bombings can be justified sometime. This is about 8 percent of all Muslims…
