The mosque where Sai Baba resided was highly unusual because it housed many practices typically associated with Hindu temples. Chapter 7 describes that while he lived in a mosque, a sacred fire (Dhuni) burned there day and night. The sounds of bells ringing and conches blowing, common in Hindu worship, were heard in the mosque. Furthermore, the text mentions that Bhajan (devotional singing), the offering to fire, ritual washing of feet, and the grinding of grain took place there. This blend of practices in a Muslim place of residence highlighted Baba's nature as being beyond conventional religious definitions.
