Abstract
The present study aimed to examine the role of personal spirituality in
Islamic perspective as a predictor of workplace attitudes among Muslim
doctors in Pakistan. A sample of 200 public and private sector Muslim
doctors was drawn from various hospitals of Rawalpindi and Islamabad.
Islamic Spirituality Scale (Kamil, Hussain, & Sulaiman, 2011),
Organization Commitment Questionnaire (Mowday, Steers, & Porter,
1972), Intrinsic Work Satisfaction Scale (Nathan, Mohrman, & Milliman,
1991) and Organizational Based Self Esteem Scale (Pierce, Gardner,
Cummings, & Dunham, 1989) were used to measure spirituality and
work attitudes among doctors. The results showed that all the dimensions
of personal spirituality have significant positive correlation with work
attitudes i.e. organizational commitment, organizational self-esteem and
work satisfaction which reflects relationship between Islamic spirituality
and work attitudes in our society. Moreover, multiple regression analysis
indicated that rituals and belief dimensions of personal spirituality were
found to be significant predictors of various work attitudes including
organizational commitment, organizational self-esteem and intrinsic work
satisfaction. The present study is insightful in provides understanding on
the role of spirituality in organizational settings.
