How does religion influence how a culture develops?

Religion develops how a culture develops in many ways. Culture is a group of people with common beliefs and way of life, the beliefs is religion. If a group of people believe a certain way, then the culture of that area will adapt to how they believe. This is why different parts of the world have different beliefs, and therefore have different culture and daily life. 

For example, if people practice Islam, then they are required to pray five times a day and that is part of their daily life and culture. Another example is the clothing people wear. Clothing is apart of culture and certain religions believe that people should dress a certain way. Also, Christians attend church on Sundays, and that is apart of the Christians culture.
