Public Administration is a branch of Social Science disciplines taught at universities in Indonesia. Indonesia is a country that is predominantly Muslim. However, the education system faces problems of secularization that is split between education and religion. This can be seen in the teaching of public administration disciplines which mostly uses Western worldview than the Islamic worldview. The results of the study, to several libraries of the universities in Indonesia showed that the administration public textbooks available to students mostly from the Western textbooks than Islamic textbooks, that it has generated a lot of administrative problems in Indonesia; while the textbooks approach puts Islamic worldview and religion as a source of knowledge, to achieve happiness in the world and life hereafter inwardly and outwardly very little available. In addition, the curriculum of public administration at universities in Indonesia also secular, because there is no subjects of public administration science in the Islamic perspective; whereas in other countries the curriculum of public administration has been developed in the Islamic perspective. Therefore, Islamic public administration is needed; and it requires steps for Islamization of public administration in higher education in Indonesia; to empowering character education for national defence.
