Abstract: This study explored the extent of adopting Bangladeshi Islamic banking industry CSR disclosure practices by Jaiz Bank Nigeria, Plc (Jaiz Bank hereafter). This is because Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited (IBBL henceforth) mentored Jaiz Bank for many years. Hence, Jaiz Bank is expected to substantially adopt the disclosure practices of IBBL. The data were generated from the annual reports and accounts of the two banks from 2013 to 2018. The findings of the study showed that Jaiz Bank and IBBL fall within the same range of disclosure indexes for the marketplace and employment dimensions. But in the case of community and social development and environmental dimensions, the disclosure indexes of IBBL exceeded those of Jaiz Bank. The widest gap exists in the case of the environmental disclosure index whereby IBBL was found to have strongly disclosed environmental issues but Jaiz Bank did not.
