Based on Chapter 7, how did Sai Baba promote harmony between Hindu and Muslim communities through festivals?

📖 Chapter 7

Chapter 7 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra highlights Sai Baba's role as a unifier, especially in the celebration of religious festivals. He treated both Hindu and Muslim festivities with equal joy and importance. For the Hindu festival of Ram Navami, He would have a cradle set up, arrange for kirtan, and organize wrestling matches. On the very same night, He would grant permission for the Muslim Sandal procession to take place. Similarly, He would have Gopal-Kala prepared for Gokul Ashtami (Hindu), and when Eid arrived, He ensured there were no obstacles to Muslim prayers (Namaj). This impartial encouragement of both traditions fostered a spirit of unity.
