“…H1: There is a direct impact between Islamic work ethics and Normative Commitment. Previous research on Islamic work ethic revealed a substantial association between Islamic work ethic and contextual performance (Hayati & Caniago ,2012), Taufail et al (2018) and Qasim et al (2021) demonstrate a positive relationship between Islamic work ethic and contextual performance (which means that the higher individual beliefs on Islamic values, the higher their performance will be). Indeed, Individuals who have stronger beliefs in Islamic values are likely to be more appreciative of what they have and patient with what has happened because they understand that the good and terrible things that happen in their lives are just God's method of testing their faith.…”

This study aimed to assess the Islamic work ethics and employees' Contextual performance with mediating effect of normative Commitment on the governmental sector in Yemen. The study used cross-sectional survey was designed to assess the Islamic work ethics and employees' Contextual performance with mediating effect of Normative Commitment on the governmental sector in Yemen. A total of 520 participants where randomly study employed a stratified random sampling SPSS 25, and Smartpls3 processed the gathered data. 520 participants were included in the survey, which was fairly enough to conduct this study. IWE -> ECP were found significant with level of significance of 0.01 (P<0.05,β= .368, t= 5.414, p=.000). Meanwhile, IWE -> NCS as well with at the significance level 0.01 (p<0.05,β= 0.661, t= 16.543, p= 0.000). finally, NCS's mediating role indirectly affects ECP through IWE. f^2=77% is considered an excellent effect size and R^244% considered a good fit to data. The study is unique based on its finding that reveals the effect of Islamic work ethics on contextual performance with mediating role of normative commitment. Furthermore, this current study's results may serve as guidance for employees' awareness and implementation of the work ethics based on Islamic principles would motivate and improve contextual performance. In the same context, implementation of IWE in the governmental sector can further strengthen employee normative commitment and consequently enhance contextual performance and high productivity.

“…Previous studies have shown human capital ( Huang et al, 2020 ), social capital ( Clausen et al, 2019 ; Yen et al, 2020 ), and psychological capital ( Ali et al, 2022 ; Qasim et al, 2021 ) can positively improve job performance, respectively. Ke et al (2010) and Huang et al (2020) used regression analysis to examine the simultaneous effect of three capitals on job performance.…”

The present study investigated the configuration effect of human capital, social capital, and psychological capital on job performance. The human capital questionnaire, social capital scale, psychological capital scale, and job performance scale were used to survey 458 employees. Results revealed that four antecedent configurations could achieve high task performance, and three antecedent configurations can achieve high contextual performance. The high job performance driving path was characterized by “all roads lead to Rome.” Human capital, social capital, and psychological capital affected job performance in the form of configuration, which reflected the asymmetric causal relationship.

“…In Islamic societies, employees consider work as a virtue and form of worship, leading to satisfaction and self-respect (ElKaleh and Samier, 2013). IWE, along with other organizational factors, facilitates employees in displaying a positive attitude towards the job because of internalized motivation (Khan et al , 2015; Qasim et al , 2021; Rawwas et al , 2018). Consequently, IWE influences LMX-adaptive performance and LMX-WDB relationships.…”

Purpose Drawing upon conservation of theory, this study aims to extend the scant literature on the effect of leader-member exchange (LMX) on workplace deviance behaviour (WDB) and adaptive performance by investigating the role of Islamic work ethics as moderators. Design/methodology/approach A time-lagged and multi-source data of (269 paired responses) of employees working in Islamic banks were used for hypotheses testing. Findings Taken together, the findings revealed that Leader Member Exchange (LMX) has a positive and significant impact on adaptive performance and is negatively related to employees’ WDB. The results of the moderation effect showed the positive relationship of LMX with adaptive performance and the negative relationship with WDB is stronger for high Islamic work ethics (IWE). Practical implications This study provides practical insight that Islamic business ethics plays a significant role in fostering adaptive performance and reducing the deviance behaviour of employees. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study that examined the moderating role of IWE between LMX-adaptive performance and LMX-WDB. This study has also filled the gap of scant literature about the impact of LMX on adaptive performance and WDB.
