Does Sunita Williams accepted the Islam?

Answer 1

No. She was and remains a Hindu. She has stated in multiple interviews both before and after her return to the International Space Station that Ganesh, a Hindu god, was overseeing and protecting her. She also mentioned in interviews that she plans to bring English translations of the Upanishads, Hindu Holy Scriptures, with her next time she goes up into space, just as she brought up the Bhagavad Gita, a different Hindu Holy Scripture, on her first trip to space.

There is a hoax circulated by Islamic Apologists that claims that she converted to Islam because of things that she saw while on the moon. Like the claims circulated about most celebrities converting to Islam, this is nonsense and contains clear factual errors. The claim refers to her as the "first Indian woman on the moon". This is completely false. Not only is she not the first Indian woman on the moon, no Indians and no women have ever been to the moon. Additionally, she is not the first Indian-American woman in space; that honor goes to Kalpana Chawla. The hoax also claims that Mecca and Medina looked like sparks in the night, which is surprising to anyone who has seen a map of the world at night. Even in the Middle East, Cairo, Tel Aviv, Kuwait City, Tehran, and Istanbul are much brighter and more noticeable than Mecca and Medina, never mind Tokyo-Yokohama, Seoul, and Shanghai in East Asia or the Benelux Region in Europe which are much brighter. See this map of the world at night.

Answer 2

There are claims on the web that Sunita Williams (International Space Station astronaut) accepted Islam. Those claims appear to be false.

There is evidence that she has Hindu beliefs. One indication is that she took a small statue of the Hindu god, Ganesha, with her to the ISS and talked of relying on him during her voyage upon her return.

No, Sunita Williams didn't convert to Islam. She has announced her devotion to Ganesha many times in India. By the way, Ganesha is the first Hindu idol travelled to space(with Sunita) and hope hereafter Ganesha will have a greater world view.As for Islam , it emphasizes on worshipping only One True God, who has created the entire universe, sustains it and will resurrect every human being after the dooms day to account for their actions in this life.
