Objective: A Sharia hospital is a hospital that appliesSharia principles in all of its activities. To maintain the qualityof Sharia hospitals, certification is required. The performance of a Sharia hospital is largely determined by the work ethic of all staff, including doctors, nurses, and other staff. One of the indicators of how well Sharia principles have been implemented is hospital customer satisfaction. The purpose of this review is to investigate the effect of implementing Sharia services in hospitals on patient satisfaction and loyalty.

Results: There are several factors that have the most influence on patient satisfaction: the behavior of doctors who are halal, hospital behavior that is in accordance with Sharia principle, and the completeness of equipment and facilities that support the implementation of the Sharia system.
Conclusion: In this literature review studying the application of Sharia principles in hospital services, there are sixstudies that connect hospital Sharia services with patient satisfaction.
