San Pedro, unlike his peers, granted Islamic pilgrimage genuine religious intent

Evidence

The theme of the nur Muhammadi (the light of Muhammad), in the hands of some earlier writers had been a vehicle through which neo- Platonic and even Gnostic illuminist ideas might be transmitted, but there is nothing to suggest that this was behind the importance of poems on the mawlid among Spain’s Muslims in the sixteenth century. The motive seems to have been simple and sincere pious devotion to the Prophet. — L. P. Harvey, Muslims in Spain, 1500 to 1614, 706 (#exemplifies, via linked claim)
