Following Sai Baba's passing, what were the immediate events and the central point of contention among his followers as described in Chapter 44?

Immediately after Baba's breath left his body, Chapter 44 recounts that Laxman-mama performed worship, and Jog conducted the Aarti with a lamp. Following these initial rites, a significant deliberation began that lasted for twenty-six hours. The central conflict was between the Hindu and Muslim devotees regarding the proper final rites for Baba's body. They debated how and where to plan the Samadhi (tomb), with each community having different ideas on how to respectfully handle the final resting state of their beloved Guru. This period of discussion and uncertainty is a key event detailed in the chapter.
