Its a question being raised by the Shankaracharya of Dwarka Peeth, Swami Swaroopanand Saraswati and rightfully so I would say, but like always my question is 'Why Now'?
All along it was known that Sai Baba was a 'Fakir' which is a Muslim mystic/alm seeker. Then his statements or quiet often used phrases were 'Allah Maalik' and 'Sabka Maalik Ek' his attire his appearance was all that of a 'Fakir' , yet the Hindus took to him with great affinity, revered him, built temples in his honour and so much so allocated a day of the week (Thursday) for him. (take a look at his original photographs here)
All along the Muslims could have very well fought for all rights to Sai Baba the Fakir, but not one of them did! (enlighten me if I have missed out on information in that direction). For that you have to give credit to them, considering what Shirdi key Sai Baba is worth in terms of Zar, Zevar, Zameen today!
So my dear Hindu bretheren today when the Shankaracharya of Dwarka Peeth, Swami Swaroopanand Saraswati and his followers (Hindus) object to the Worship of Shirdi Sai Baba by the Hindus , what are you going to do? considering Today, the Shri Saibaba Sansthan Trust that runs Sai Babas place of worship at Shirdi is a mammoth organisation, employing more than 2,200 permanent employees and 4,000 contract employees is one of the richest shrines in the country, has ornaments and jewellery worth Rs 50,53 Crores and growing, (Check the Annual Reports of the Sansthaan here) tell the Muslims take your Fakir we have enough of our own Gods and Godmen/Godwomen?
