Malaysia is the only country that makes anti-corruption a Key Performance Indicator (KPI). The implementation of the Government Transformation Program (GTP) 2.0 through the National Key Result Areas (NKRA) on Corruption is one of the government's priorities. However, the performance and integrity of civil servants in Malaysia are still at a problematic level. Issues such as corruption and inefficiency in public service delivery are becoming increasingly serious. Therefore, the question is does the concept of integrity for existing civil servants is fully effective? What is the concept of integrity based on Islam? Therefore, it becomes a necessity to study the concept of integrity of civil servants based on Islam. For Muslim people and Muslim countries, the model is seen better if it is sourced and based on true Islam as Malaysia will make the prevention of corruption and integrity a subject in schools and institutions of higher learning (IPT). Therefore, three objectives were set for this study to identify the concept of Islamic integrity for civil servants; and analyse the concept of Islamic integrity for civil servants based on the Quran and Sunnah. The design of this qualitative study is exploratory research. This study also uses library research methods for data collection. Library research will be able to select and evaluate verses in Quran and related hadiths using the purposive sampling method. Data were analysed using the content analysis method. The results of this study found that the concept of Islamic integrity is broader than the existing concept. It encompasses the external and internal aspects of human beings. This discussion of the concept of integrity in Islam is more similar to the application of Islamic morality. The Islamic society and state are more appropriate to use the concept of integrity that comes from the source of Islam itself, namely the Al-Quran and al-Sunnah.
