Religion
About 83 percent of Bangladeshis are Sunni Muslims and 16 percent are Hindus. They pray five times daily, and their scripture is the Koran. Eating pork and beef and drinking alcohol isn't allowed. Cleanliness is stressed near holy books and places, so they take their shoes off before entering mosques and temples.
