This article will touch on various aspects of jihad, the distribution of jihad, the reward of al-Quran based jihad, the implementation of jihad in contemporary contexts and the discussion of this paper which focuses on jihad in the contemporary context as there is a great deal of confusion among Muslims and non-Muslims about the meaning of jihad itself is often referred to as a war of arms that has led to bloodshed and murder. The confusion also involves the target groups to be fought. The so-called jihadist war does not quite meet the true meaning of jihad as Islam demands, but when it is studied deeper the definitions made about jihad include more general matters. Therefore, this paper focuses on qualitative studies by emphasizing the study's focus on the purpose of jihad and its implementation which has been given by past and contemporary scholars who look to the aspect of the head of the Prophet S.A.W's struggle by not only focusing on the narrow aspects of the jihadist sense in line with the shariah maqasid's perspective.
