This study uses a cross-sectional explanatory design to examine the link between credit risk management and mortgage performance in Islamic banks. Data from 55 respondents at Meezan Bank and Bank of Islami were collected via questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS. Reliability (Cronbach’s Alpha &gt; 0.6) and validity (Content Validity Index) ensured accuracy. The analysis highlights significant relationships between various factors and mortgage performance in Islamic banks. A strong positive correlation exists between risk mitigation and mortgage performance (r = 0.771, P &lt; 0.01). Similarly, credit scores show a robust link with provisions to total advances and non-performing loans to total advances (r = 0.373, P &lt; 0.05). Financial stability correlates positively with mortgage performance indicators (r = 0.311, P &lt; 0.001). Risk management techniques—transfer risk (r = 0.253, P &gt; 0.05), analysis risk (r = 0.343, P &lt; 0.05), and diversification risk (r = 0.399, P &lt; 0.01)—demonstrate significant positive effects on mortgage performance. These findings underscore the importance of credit evaluation and effective risk management in enhancing mortgage outcomes. The findings suggest that effective credit risk management practices contribute positively to mortgage performance in Islamic banks, highlighting the importance of robust risk mitigation strategies. Enhanced credit risk management can potentially lead to improved financial stability for borrowers and lenders in the Islamic banking sector, thereby promoting economic resilience. This study contributes to the understanding of how credit risk management impacts mortgage performance specifically within Islamic banking contexts in Pakistan, offering insights for practitioners and policymakers.</em></p> Muhammad Saeed Iqbal Aqsa Iqbal Bushra Riaz Mohsin Ali Sheeza Tahir Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of Business and Environmental Management https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-11-28 2024-11-28 3 1 1 30
