The main religion in Singapore is Buddhism, second is no affiliation, third Christianity. And down at fourth with 15% you have Islam! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore
So you have one anecdotal example with Brunei.
And I can counter with Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Jordan, Yemen, Somalia.
Where AFAIK all these countries have problems with for instance so called honor killings. And death penalty for insulting the false prophet.
As I mentioned it’s the culture and religion, but in extreme Islamic countries, the religion is preventing the cultures to progress.
And of course there are places that are worse than others, maybe Brunei is not so bad, I don’t know much about that country.
All the bad ones have way higher ratio of Muslims.
But I’ve mentioned before, that not ALL Muslims are bad. But it remains the main force for promoting religious extremism and fanaticism. And it’s rare to see Muslims complain when other Muslims do horrendous acts, like killing for expressing your opinion by burning a book. And things that should be a complete non issue like the Mohammad drawings:
People who were threatened on their life by fucking official MUSLIM GOVERNMENTS!! With Iran even offering a high reward for the death of Salman Rushdie.
How can you compare this to anything done in the name of Christianity today?
I personally am in favor of destruction of all religion but I also understand why they exist.
That we can agree on, religion in general is detrimental to both individuals and society. And they exist because of ignorance to explain common phenomena that weren’t understood in ancient times, and still aren’t today by a very large share of the global population.
Still there are differences as to how harmful each religion is.
America has school shootings, would you deem it in the same light as Jordan which has honor killings? Both places seem to have unique problems arising from their different culture and environment.

But if you look at Muslim countries they are only the 37th most muslim country:
