The correct answer is Muslim.

This caused a lot of tension between the Russians and the Chechens because many Chechens believed that they should become an independent state with Muslim rule. This is just one of the reasons why a war broke out in the nineties between the Russians and the Chechens and Chechenya remained a part of the Russian territory.
