The Power of Faith at Work: Islamic Spirituality, Ethics, and Resilience in Industrial Performance

Abstract

This research is conducted to examine the impact of Islamic spirituality on job performance through the dual mediation role of ethics and resilience. Data containing 309 employees in Pakistan’s industrial sector were collected and processed in mediation analysis (Process Model 4).  The research findings indicate that Islamic spirituality has a significant influence on job performance through promoting strong work ethics (β = 0.18, p < 0.01) and resilience (β = 0.12, *p* < 0.05). This study also contributes to the literature in the field of Islamic workplace spirituality by incorporating dual-path mechanisms. These mechanisms describe that how faith-based values are used to improve productivity in an organization. Practical implications of this research suggest integrating Islamic ethical principles and resilience in the development programs of employees.
