Faith plays a central role in shaping Bulkh's social fabric. 68% of the population identifies as {{wp|Muslim}}, primarily {{wp|Sunni}}. However, nuanced interpretations and cultural practices create a diverse religious landscape. Christianity finds fertile ground with 20% adherence, with [[Mercantile Reform Protestant]]ism and [[Catholicism]] forming the main denominations. Vestiges of the colonial past remain, with communities practicing Christian liturgical languages, like Latin.

Palm wine is made locally from the sap of palm trees. It predates [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]]'s and {{Wp|Islam}}'s arrival in the region and enjoys a degree of cultural acceptance, especially in the {{wp|Bedouin}} community. Often associated with rural communities and traditional festivities, palm wine has been shielded from religious interference, but its alcohol content is artificially made lower out of respect for Islamic morays.
