Abstract: Abstract This study examines the impact of Islamic banks’ financial success on their market performance, specifically focusing on the relationship between financial performance and stock prices in Iraqi Islamic banks. The research gathered financial performance metrics and stock market information from 15 publicly traded Iraqi Islamic banks. The data was collected over ten years, from 2013 to 2022, resulting in 150 observations for Islamic banks listed on the Iraq stock exchange. The financial performance metrics of Iraqi Islamic banks were assessed using the Return on Assets and Return on Equity Ratios. The paper uses stock prices as a metric for market returns in its research. The results show a significant relationship between financial performance and stock returns in Iraqi Islamic banks. The study addresses the influence of Islamic banks’ financial performance on their market performance, particularly in the Iraqi Islamic banking sector. The study explores the correlation between financial performance and stock returns in the Islamic banking industry, addressing the absence of knowledge on the effect of financial performance indicators on investor choices in this sector. Investors may use the results of this research in the Iraqi Islamic banking sector to comprehend the substantial influence of financial performance indicators on the increase of share prices in Islamic banks. This understanding can assist investors in making better-educated choices about their investments.
