It carries various attributes which recognize and distinguish him/her, both as an individual and as part of a certain group. One of the ways people display their identity is through the use of language. This research discusses the use of language in constructing religious identity by taking the problem of the Arab characters in revealing their identity as Muslims in a webtoon entitled Abu Dhabi Romance then applying linguistic identity theory by Thornborrow. The researcher uses descriptive qualitative method in analyzing the data. This research aims to show the ways of language can indicate religious identity of Arab characters by considering the author?s perspective. It more concerns on the condition when they are as a minority in Seoul (South Korea), and the condition when they do interaction with the Korean man, either in Seoul or in Abu Dhabi (UAE). The results are personal identities are constructed by the names: Islamic names; naming practice: patronymic or nasab. Then, group identities are constructed by the representation of Muslims as the Arabs; Ingroups and Outgroups are indicated by code-switching, and common behaviors practiced by Muslims are found in three categories: 1) the selection of legal food, 2) the restriction of interfaith marriage, 3) and the boundaries between man and woman. In addition, linguistic variation found in this research is linguistic maintenance in form of code-switching.
