The man from the beginning of creation faced with war and Jihad. And The three religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are also generally accepted. The words of the Bible have accepted the principle of Jihad and the verses of the Holy Qur'an have given it a qualitative evolution by providing some restrictions. This article has written by using a comparative descriptive method with Library, and intends to state that the interpretations of war and Jihad in the Bible are stated absolutely and without any restrictions. And it has evolved in the verses of the Holy Qur’an and has been expressed by adding deterrent laws. “acceptance of the principle of Jihad, importance and order to Jihad and war, not being afraid of a large number of enemies, intensity of action in war if necessary and Jihad with self” in the Qur'an and the Bible are the common cases. “Extent of quality of verses of Jihad in the Holy Qur’an, Types of Jihad in the Holy Qur’an, Binding and not being absolute command to fight in the Holy Qur’an, duties of Mujahideen in war, and intensity of action along with serving and worshiping of God” are the differences between Qur’an and Bible.

Semantics, as a branch of linguistic, is a knowledge that analyzes the meaning of the words and sentences of a text. With this knowledge, we can recognize the exact positions of the words and their compound forms through a semantic system. The word "jihad", a very important word in the Quran, is considered from this perspective. This word is one of the complex concepts that has long been the focus of attention in Islamic schools, and its frequent appearance throughout the Quran indicatives its importance. The present study seeks to answer these two questions: What are the collocations and replacements for the word Jihad? And what are semantic factors of this word? Thus after considering about forty-one verses of the Holy Quran and pragmatic analyses of jihad, we found that the term jihad has the connotation of soft wars and power which is quite the opposite of the general view towards it, considering it as a war with weapons. Accordingly, it often means power and war-like software. That is to say, it focuses on promising, advising, and preaching. Therefore, by this way, we can dispel the unfair propagations, especially in the present time that the enemies of Islam try to propagate so called Islam with power and swords.
