Sama

Explanation: Sama, the devotional practice of listening to music and poetry, including qawwalis, allowed Sufis to engage with diverse audiences, including those of different faiths. The ecstatic nature of Sama transcended linguistic and cultural boundaries, facilitating the sharing of religious experiences and fostering a sense of communal belonging, thereby integrating Chishti practices with local traditions.

Other options:

Khalifa nomination, while significant for succession within the Chishti order, did not directly contribute to cultural integration.

Strict adherence to Sharia, while central to Islam, would have made integration with local traditions more difficult, as it emphasizes adherence to a specific set of religious laws.

Rejection of all material possessions could be interpreted as isolationist, and would have hindered the development of relationships and cultural exchange with people embedded in the existing social and economic structures.
