Khalifah Umar Abdul Aziz was renowned as a great leader in implementing an Islamic based government. His country was among the countries that served as a guide for forming a system of government in accordance to Islam. His country was fit to be declared as an Uswah Hasanah country (good role model country). Khalifah Umar Abdul Aziz himself as an Uswah hasanah could be considered as a measurement of success of his Uswah Hasanah country, compared with the government before and after his. Since good governance is important, the question is, can an Uswah Hasanah country, implemented under the governance of Khalifah Umar Abdul Aziz, be emulated today? This article aimed to answer this question by analyzing the approach of uswah hasanah country of Khalifah Umar Abdul Aziz based on the implementation of Islamic political economy in his government. In order to achieve the goal, this article was written utilizing the method of documents analysis in order to gather secondary data. The data was then analyzed using the method of content analysis. As a result, it was found that uswah hasanah of Khalifah Umar Abdul Aziz affected the formation of Uswah Hasanah country based on his implementation of Islamic political economy. The application of this approach involved two subject matters. Firstly, the implications of political uswah hasanah of Khalifah Umar Abdul Aziz on the economy of the Uswah Hasanah country; and secondly, the implications of economic uswah hasanah of Khalifah Umar Abdul Aziz on the politics of the Uswah Hasanah country.
