From the campus premises, 102 Muslim students were conveniently chosen and surveyed based on a self-administered questionnaire. Findings: From the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) approach, it was uncovered that the Shariah-compliant hospitality attributes significantly drove the Shariah-compliant attitude, and Shariahcompliant attitude significantly affected Shariah-compliant intention. Contribution: The empirical study, holding this idea apart from others’ contributions to Shariah-compliant hotel service field, was conducted from Malaysia perspective for the first time.
