Can you tell me how Sai Baba managed the celebrations of both Hindu and Muslim festivals in Shirdi?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 7

Sai Baba masterfully orchestrated the celebration of festivals from both faiths with equal joy. As described in Chapter 7, during the Hindu festival of Ram Navami, he would have a cradle tied in the assembly hall and arrange for Katha and Kirtan. On that same night, he would give permission for the Muslim Sandal procession to take place with ceremony. The chapter also notes that for Gokul Ashtami, he would have the Gopal-Kala prepared. Similarly, when the Muslim festival of Moharram arrived, some followers asked to create a Tabut (tomb replica). Baba not only gave permission but allowed it to be kept in the mosque for four days, demonstrating his impartial and inclusive approach to all religious observances.
