Its proximity to historic trade routes that connected the Indian subcontinent with Central Asia has exposed it to various cultural and religious influences over time.
Sufi scholars and mystics played a significant role in spreading Islam across Punjab, including in rural areas like Village Maroof, by establishing mosque that became center of community life and spiritual gatherings.
Today, the people of Village Maroof still honor these Sufi traditions, with many local customs tied to religious practices.
The village thus stands as a testament to the historical shifts in Punjab, reflecting centuries-old traditions alongside the influence of Islam, which continues to shape the identity and values of the community.
Hinduism was deeply rooted in the cultural fabric, with villagers worshipping Hindu deities and observing festivals tied to the seasons and agrarian lifestyle.
