Bosnia is a country of various religions, just like most countries in the world today. However the three main religions are Islam, Orthodox Christianity and Roman Catholicism. About 40% of the population is Muslim (belonging mostly to the Sunni sect), 30% are Orthodox Christians (belonging to the Serbian Orthodox Church), 15% are Roman Catholics and the rest are either Atheists or they affiliate with some other religion.
Religious customs are behaviours which are associated with the forms of worship practised in a particular religion, or which are commanded by the holy scriptures of the particular religion. Thus the practise of "crossing yourself", practised by Roman Catholics, is a part of their worship, and is a religious custom. Likewise, abstinence from pork is a behaviour required by the scriptures of both Muslims and Jews, and is thus a religious custom. Sometimes, however, people think that behaviours practised primarily by a particular religious group are religious customs when in fact they are just . . . customs. For example, the wearing of headscarves by Muslim women in contexts outside of worship is not actually mandated in scripture and is thus just a custom.

Religious observation refers to the practice of performing rituals, ceremonies, or acts of devotion according to the beliefs and teachings of a specific religion. This can include attending religious services, prayer, fasting, pilgrimage, or other customs prescribed by the faith.

The Bosnian War was not primarily a religious conflict, but rather a complex mix of political, ethnic, and historical factors. Religion did play a role in the conflict, as different ethnic groups in Bosnia identified with different religions, but it was not the main cause of the war.
