My point is that many cultures helped the development of that art. Not just the Yuroba which is by the way a tribe which included muslims, that due to these muslims, most of what we know of this tribe was documented by these muslims.

The fact is that just because some may believe that orishas help strengthen the practice capoeira does not make the practice of it by a muslim haram for he doesn't believe that it is strengthen by multiple gods but by One God. A muslim MUST seek knowledge from the cradle to the grave and even if it is as far as China as Muhammed SAWS has told us. We are to take the good thereof and leave the rest. A muslim would learn the various forms and stances and leave that multiple god stuff alone. What they use to explain through various gods a muslim explain with the conviction of One.
