Chapter 7 provides a detailed argument against classifying Sai Baba as solely Muslim by listing numerous activities within the mosque that were distinctly Hindu in nature. The text poses a series of rhetorical questions: if he were a Muslim, why was there a sacred fire (Dhuni) burning day and night? Why was there grinding of grain, the ringing of bells, and the blowing of conches? The chapter continues by mentioning the offering to fire, constant Bhajan (devotional songs), food distribution, and the ritual washing of feet and worship—all taking place within the mosque. This evidence, as presented in Chapter 7, supports the conclusion that He was a holy incarnation who transcended religious labels, even attracting the best of Brahmins to worship him there.
The text describes Baba's residence as a mosque. How does Chapter 7 use the activities within this mosque to argue against classifying him as exclusively Muslim?
