+## Bengali
+
+For the Bengali or Bangla lanaguage, the `Harfbuzz` renderer in `luatex`
+is recommended. Here is a minimal example:
+```tex
+\documentclass{article}
+\pagestyle{empty}
+
+\usepackage[bengali, provide=*]{babel}
+\babelfont{rm}[Renderer=Harfbuzz]{FreeSerif}
+
+\begin{document}
+
+বাংলা ভাষা বিকাশের ইতিহাস ১৩০০ বছর পুরনো। চর্যাপদ এ ভাষার আদি নিদর্শন।
+
+\end{document}
+```
+![](../media/bengali-sample-luatex.png)
+
+It works with `xetex`, too, with the same output, but with this engine
+there is no need the set the renderer (it’s always Harfbuzz).
