A key topic of participants’ discussions was the groups or communities to which they identify and the effects of those identifications on their civic, political, and religious behaviors. As noted in the previous chapter, many respondents identified themselves as Muslims at a personal level but insisted on other identifications, such as nationality or ethnicity, to define themselves socially. In general, there was resistance to being exclusively identified as Muslim.
