Abstract	:	The main purpose of this research is to explore the social identity of Muslim Background Believers (MBBs) in Bangladesh. Three research questions address the following subjects: (1) Bangladeshi MBBs’ formation of new social identities after belief in <i>'Isa</i>; (2) MBBs’ social integration with Muslims and participation in their religious activities; (3) MBBs’ perception of four important issues (Allah, <i>'Isa</i>, Muhammad, and the Qur’an). To answer these questions, qualitative research methodology—interviews in particular—was employed. Forty-eight local MBB respondents from diverse believers’ communities (Jama’ats) and ten experienced foreign respondents were interviewed and were observed for one year.
