The research followed positivist research philosophy and quantitative descriptive cross-sectional study design to explicate the relationship between small business owner’s attitude, social influence and business service on intention to adopt Islamic banking. 390 sample from Klang Valley region of Selangor state of Malaysia was considered for the study. Data was collected using survey method through the distribution of structured questionnaires. PLS-SEM was used to test the predictive relevance.
