Abstract

Islamic banking is a dynamic segment in the banking industry. However, although having enormous potential, Islamic banks, especially micro banks, which have emerged only recently are perceived as less popular and as less experienced than conventional banking. Therefore, they need a proper strategy to compete and have a high performance compared to their competitors. This study is intended to assess the effect of religiosity on bank performance through strengthening employee job satisfaction and employee job performance as well as its implication on religion education. For this purpose, the data, 210 Islamic bank employees, was gathered using a self-administered questionnaire from Islamic banks in West Java Province, Indonesia. The data were analyzed by using multiple regression. The result shows that religiosity significantly impacts on bank performance through strengthening job satisfaction and job performance. This finding suggests that religion teaching in education in their curriculum. From Islamic managerial practice, this finding helps the Islamic micro bank managers to develop a proper strategy to improve their bank performance.
