Abstract

- This study examines Islamic spirituality as an intervening variable mediating the relationship between religiosity, the sharia system, professionalism, and career interest in Islamic banking among students at Islamic higher education institutions in East Java, Indonesia. Employing a quantitative approach, the research utilized purposive and random sampling techniques to survey 150 respondents, determined using the Lemeshow method. Data were analyzed through multiple regression and path analysis within an associative comparative framework. Findings reveal that religiosity and the sharia system lack direct influence on career interest but exhibit significant indirect effects when mediated by Islamic spirituality. Conversely, professionalism directly and positively impacts career interest without requiring spiritual mediation. The study highlights the critical role of Islamic spirituality in amplifying religiosity and sharia adherence to shape career aspirations, while professionalism independently drives career interest. Theoretical implications suggest that Islamic spirituality bridges ideological principles with vocational motivation, whereas practical insights emphasize integrating spiritual values into academic curricula and fostering workplace environments that reinforce sharia compliance. These outcomes underscore the need for Islamic financial institutions to cultivate spiritual motivation among employees to align operational practices with ethical foundations. Keywords: Islamic Spirituality, Religiosity, Sharia System, Professionalism, Career Interest
