I. INTRODUCTION
Islam as a system of life revealed by Allah s.w.t through Rasulullah s.a.w becomes guidance and guidance for mankind towards the salvation of the world and the hereafter. Islamic perfection as a guideline, life guidance has been successfully proven by Rasulullah s.a.w in leading the multicultural Madinah consisting of various tribes and ugama. The perfection of Islam was then continued during the Companionship and the Banu Abasyiah and Banu Umawiyah dynasty, although not perfect when the Prophet led.
II. ISLAMIC PERFECTION
The perfection of Islam is not only when Islam comes with the closing minutes of the prophets, especially from that Allah s.w.t has prepared perfect Islam from the beginning. First, perfect Islam because of Allah s.w.t chose the best place for the birth of Islam brought by the Prophet. Allah s.w.t decreases Islam in Arab land. The condition of the Arab land at that time was far removed from the superpower: Persia, Rome, then followed India and Greece (Ramadhan Al Buthy , 1999 ms 7-8)
