The research shows positive sign in Malaysian sukuk market that probably reason of investor’s awareness to switch to more secure and Shariah compliance securities after financial crisis and this provide signal to investor strategies to hold the stock until 61-day in order to earn an abnormal return. The results also revealed that large firms exhibit reversal behaviour with significantly outperformed small firms at 61-day of event window. The significant findings in this study contribute clearer evidence and strategies concerning returns and price adjustment, may encourage more investors to invest in Islamic debt in the future and for would-be investors and issuers. This study provides some recommendations, one of them is future research could be tested on the impact of capital structure beyond Malaysian market and compared between two or more markets perhaps between advanced and emerging economies. 2014-06 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/14083/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/14083/1/TM_MUZRIFAH%20MOHAMED%20AC%2014_5.pdf text en public mphil masters Universiti Teknologi MARA Faculty of Accountancy Ali, Norli (Assoc.
