This research is qualitative with a case study approach. Conducted at As-Sunnah Islamic High School Deli Serdang, North Sumatra. Data collection techniques are carried out by observation, interviews, and documentation. While data analysis is done through data reduction, data presentation, drawing conclusions, and verification. The results of the research show that regarding the law of jihad, students agree that the law of jihad is fardhu kifayah, namely an obligation that if a group of Muslims has carried it out, then the obligations of other Muslims fall. Even so, under certain conditions, the law of jihad can become fardhu 'ain, which is an obligation for every individual Muslim. These conditions are when the enemy has attacked when meeting the enemy, and when ordered by the legitimate leadership of the State. Student jihad in the life of the state can be carried out in all areas of life, for example, ideology, politics, economy, socio-culture, and defense and security.
