Each year they organize a grand cultural-fair at this temple. Muslim residents actively take part in this celebration. They worship the Goddess with the same devotion as they do in the mosque. As for the offerings they carry mostly a Red Cloth, Attar (Perfume) and Agarbattis (Incense Sticks). Just like Hindus they too worship the temple for their cultural rites and rituals. Its impossible to predict whether its a Hindu temple or a Muslim Mosque. Thats the similar situation here in India too where the people from all the religions celebrate each and every festival with a great pomp. Its a fact that secularism and humanity cant be restricted by self centered political stance and tyrannical rules.
