What's the Muslim take on the birth control pill? If ever there were a place that needed some contraception, it's Bangladesh.
Bangladesh's fertility rate is actually somewhere between 2.5 and 2.8 and is pretty much the world average. That's much better than most Middle Eastern and African nations. The damage was done earlier and in any case that part of the world has always had a large population relative to the rest of the world. Flat, fertile land through which two of the world's biggest rivers flow into the ocean and no frost or freeze so agriculture continues year round.
