<option weight="1">{{Pictorial-Islam|1=Hans Raj Hans' Alleged Conversion to Islam|2=[[File:Hans Raj Hans.jpg|170px|link=Hans Raj Hans - Conversion to Islam]]|3=The claim of Hans Raj Hans' conversion to Islam is the product of an inaccurate media story originating from a February 19, 2014 interview with the singer conducted by a local news agency in Pakistan. Hans Raj Hans, Navraj Hans and Yuvraj Hans have all made public statements concerning the story's inaccuracy, stating in no uncertain terms that it is false. The singer did not convert from Sikhism to Islam and is not a Muslim.
Hans makes no secret of his respect for Islam, Sufi saints or Pakistan. This is not surprising considering his style of music or the fact that Pakistan houses the first Gurdwara (Sikh worship place) ever built. Just as his respect for Pakistan does not make him a Pakistani, respecting Islam does not make Hans Raj a Muslim. It does however make it easier to proliferate false stories concerning both.

During the march, protesters chanted "Shame, shame on the UK", "No tolerance: execution", "Kill her, kill her by firing squad", Western journalists were harassed, and newspapers bearing her photographs were burnt. Her only crime was allowing her class of 7-year-old primary school pupils, at Unity High School in Khartoumto, to name a teddy bear 'Muhammad.' In accordance with the Sunnah of the Prophet; blasphemy is punishable by death in Islam. (read more)
