How did the activities within the Dwarkamai mosque challenge the idea that Sai Baba was strictly a Muslim?

📖 Chapter 7

The environment and activities within the mosque where Sai Baba resided directly contradicted conventional Islamic practices, making it difficult to label him solely as a Muslim. Chapter 7 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra poses several rhetorical questions to highlight this. For instance, if He were a Muslim, why was there a sacred fire (Dhuni) burning day and night in the mosque? The text also mentions the grinding of grain, the ringing of bells and blowing of conches, fire offerings, constant Bhajan (devotional singing), and the ritual washing of His feet in worship—all practices typically associated with Hinduism, not Islam, taking place within the mosque.
