Abstract: This research used the TPB model to investigate the use of Sukuk in Qatar. The research revealed that attitude has a significant and positive effect on the Behavioural intention to use Sukuk. The research also found that religiosity alone does not influence the use of Sukuk, but perceived behavioural factors such as the quality of customer service and the knowledge about the distinctive features of Sukuk are crucial to enhance the people’s perception about Sukuk. Finally, the research found that increasing awareness about Sukuk to both Muslims and non-Muslims would increase the use of Sukuk.
