Abstract

The main purpose of the study is to examine the service quality that explains the variance in customer satisfaction in the Islamic banking in Kedah. The measurement of service
quality was modified and adapted from Othman and Owen (2001) and Parasuraman et al. (1991) with 1-5 scale adapted with local culture. The instrument consists of six
dimensions namely compliance, assurance, reliability, tangible, empathy and responsiveness. Meanwhile, the measurement of customer satisfaction was adapted from
Othman and Owen (2001) and McDougall dan Levesque (1994). This study chooses two banks that practices Islamic banking; Bank Islam and Bank Muamalat. 200 questionaires
were distibuted; 100 questionaires for Bank Islam and Bank Muamalat respectively. The stratified random sampling technique was used 1.0 select the respondents. The
questionaires were distributed using sistematic convenient sampling technique. The data gathered were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The study

well as the overall service quality. The bank customer emphasize compliance, assurance, reliability, tangible, empathy and responsiveness. The result showed that there were significant difference in the customer satisfaction based on gender and education level.

There were three dimensions of service quality, namely empathy, responisiveness, and tangible considered as the critical factor in the customer satisfaction, and the less emphasized factors were compliance, assurance and reliability.
