Why was it difficult to classify Sai Baba as a Muslim, even though he lived in a mosque? Use details from Chapter 7.

📖 Chapter 7

Although Sai Baba's residence was a mosque, Chapter 7 lists numerous practices that contradicted typical Islamic customs, making it difficult to label him a Muslim. The chapter points out that a sacred fire, or Dhuni, burned day and night within the mosque. Furthermore, activities usually associated with Hindu temples, such as the ringing of bells, the blowing of conches, and the ritual washing of feet for worship, all took place in the mosque. The text also mentions that constant Bhajan (devotional singing) and offerings to the fire were performed there, practices which led many to question how he could be considered a Muslim.
