Bangladesh is a majority Muslim country (with a minority of Hindus and even fewer Buddhists and Christians). Islam has permeated most facets of life in Bangladesh as there is no separation of "temple" and state. Five times a day, you'll hear prayer call blared out of speakers from mosques in all directions. Folks will ask you about your holy book and depending on your religion (or lack thereof) it might make for an awkward moment or two. Generally though, Bengali people are very respectful to other religions and ask the same in return. I've not met any non-Muslims who have been accosted because of their religion. This may be due to the kind and welcoming nature of Bengalis, regardless of religion.
