Islamic work ethics is the principle of wrong and right at work place
and it designates what people/ employees ought to do in the light of Quran and
practical examples from the life of Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم .Islamic work ethic
has been viewed as a way to promote psychological, social and primarily
economic self-interest in order to maintain social prestige, increase societal
welfare and reaffirm religious faith. Major dimensions of Islamic work
included for this research study were effort, justice, honesty, team work,
accountability and trustworthiness. Research objectives included exploring and
comparing dimensions of Islamic work ethics among respondents of both
sectors. Descriptive comparative research design was adopted to explore the
variables of this study. 300 faculty members from public and private sector
universities in Islamabad were randomly selected as sample of the study. Data
was collected through a self-constructed questionnaire having 24 statements
on 5 point likert scale. This questionnaire was based on extensive literature
review in the specified field and yielded a reliability of .89. Results revealed
that respondents agreed that effort, honesty, team work and trustworthiness are
foundations of Islamic work ethic, however they opined differently about
justice and accountability at work place. Findings of this study may be helpful
for administrators in improving work place practices and for employees in
doing self-evaluations for self-improvement that is going to be rewarded here
and life hereafter.
