This study is aimed at investigating individual factors that may influence the withdrawal behavior of Malaysian Islamic banks customers. The withdrawal behavior studied here is in conjunction with three major issues which are (i) issues of non-shariah compliance, (ii) lower returns as compared to other banks, and (iii) rumors of a financial crisis that may affect the bank in the near future.
