Over the last two decades, several influential developments have posed challenges for financial institutions and commercial banks ;economic growth, movements toward financial reforms and deregulation. Most, if not all, of these areas derive new challenges and certainly create a crucial impact on banks profitability for most financial market participants, including Islamic banks and traditional banks. Overall, despite the relevant coverage of literature toward banks profitability, limited research work is undertaken to examine Islamic and traditional banksprofitability in developing countries. This study expands the literature on banking and finance in the context of commercial bank profitability by identifying the determinants of banks profitability for Islamic banks and traditional banks. Determinants of Bank profitability is an invaluable addition to the growing knowledge in the banking efficiency and willindeed contribute to making the banking sector works more effectively. Industry professionals, supervisors and financial sector policy makers will find the work comprehensive, and analytical for analyzing the bank profitability.
