Awareness of Islamic financial planning for Hajj and Umrah among muslim bank staff

The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between bank staff, which is RHB Bank, Bank Persatuan, and Al-Rajhi Bank and awareness of Islamic financial planning (IFP) for Hajj and Umrah. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between banker staff attitude, subjective norm, perceived behaviour control, religiosity, and awareness of IFP. The findings indicated a positive relationship between perceived behaviour control, subjective norm, attitude, and religiosity with IFP for Hajj and Umrah among staff bankers. The independent variables were suitable to test the dependent variable, while financial satisfaction showed an insignificant relationship with the dependent variable. This study was conducted among bank staff for several reasons; firstly to create awareness of IFP for Hajj and Umrah among bank staff by distributing questionnaire and spreading information. Secondly, the research will contribute in terms of practical implications to help academicians and financial planners to validate the framework of this study to have an impact on financial planning especially Islamic financial planning. It would also provide knowledge to fellow Muslims, and lastly it would influence Malaysian government especially Tabung Haji and other Muslim countries to be alert to the need of IFP
