Just how dumb you must be to ask this after quote I posted on page 1?
Anyway, Ahmad ibn Fadlan:
"One noteworthy aspect of the Volga Bulgars that Ibn Fadlan focused on was their religion and the institution of Islam in these territories. The Bulgar king had invited religious instruction as a gesture of homage to the Abbasids in exchange for financial and military support, and Ibn Fadlan's mission as a faqih was one of proselytization as well as diplomacy.
For example, Ibn Fadlan details in his encounter that the Volga Bulgar Khan commits an error in his prayer exhortations by repeating the prayer twice. One scholar calls it an “illuminating episode” in the text where Ibn Fadlan expresses his great anger and disgust over the fact that the Khan and the Volga Bulgars in general are practicing some form of imperfect and doctrinally unsound Islam. In general, Ibn Fadlan recognized and judged the peoples of central Eurasia he encountered by the possession and practice of Islam, along with their efforts put forth to utilize, implement, and foster Islamic faith and social practice in their respective society. Consequently, many of the peoples and societies to Ibn Fadlan were "like asses gone astray. They have no religious bonds with God, nor do they have recourse to reason.""

chuvash are volga bugars
One is that they originated from a mixing between the Turkic Sabir tribes of Volga Bulgaria and also according to some researches with local Finno-Ugric populations.[15]
According to another theory, the Chuvash may be descended from the Volga Bulgars.[16]
Chuvash is classified, alongside the extinct Bulgar language, as the only remaining member of the Oghuric branch of the Turkic language family.

"Bulgar" like "Russian".
Foreigners call the entire population of Russia "Russian" but in fact in Russia there are many different peoples.
In Volga Bulgaria lived Chuvash, Mari, Udmurts and Muslim population (the ancestors of modern ) Tatars.
But we have no facts to say that there was people who called themselves Bulgars.
