The data analysis uses descriptive qualitative techniques that focus on the interpretation of jihad doctrine. The findings of this research reveal that interpretation the doctrine of jihad perspective of the radical Islam in Indonesia is a reductive interpretation. They emphasis only hold on to parts of the Qur'an but ignore other verses of the Qur'an and took only one meaning from the various interpretations of jihad. When they interpreted Jihad only as war, the substantive meaning of jihad became vague. With regard, the term of jihad became negative connotation that identic with terror. Moreover, the interpretation is very radical that oppose the majority of moderate Muslim scholar. They hold that jihad has very broad and profound understanding. The historical context and the principle of religion such as love, mercy, harmony, peace and tolerant of others should be taken into consideration.
