There isn’t any evidence that he ever embraced Islam as an adolescent or as an adult.
However, there is evidence to suggest that while in attendance at school in Indonesia, he was counted as a Muslim, and engaged in Muslim religious practice.
That he “grew out of it” is entirely possible. Many kids do grow out of the religion in which they grow up.
But just as we would count someone as a former Catholic who was baptized Catholic, but who in his adulthood left the Church for another religion, it seems that Mr. Obama is likely a former Muslim.

In the eyes of Islam, he is definitely a Muslim.
If your father is a Muslim, which he was, then that makes him a Muslim for life, whether he likes it or not. And his stepfather in the second marriage was a Muslim as well. If your mother marries a Muslim, that makes you a Muslim, like it or not.
So in Muslim eyes, he is either a Muslim or an evil convert to a false religion, who should be killed.
I’m curious about that. When a prominent Muslim renounces his faith, someone always puts a Fatwa out on him and good Muslims try to kill him. How come Obama is not subject to this kind of attack by Muslim fanatics? Could it be that they think he would be very HELPFUL to them if he were elected president?
I notice, too, that he keeps saying he is a Christian (a very bad Christian, who three times voted against the infants born alive protection act in Illinois), but he never admits that he was ever a Muslim or that he has repudiated Islam. Yet he certainly WAS a Muslim—unless he still IS a Muslim, biding his time and lying to the infidels as Mohammed taught him to do. Does he repudiate all of that, which he studied in his Madrassah?
