This research conclusively found that the diversity of the West Sumatra indicates the roots of groups that develop radical attitudes in implementing and responding to various conditions that occur. Among these groups are FPI, MMI, and KPSI.

Furthermore, in several universities, especially in general universities, radical attitudes were also shown by several student organizations, such as LDK, FSI, and FPI. Many strategies undertaken in the efforts to jihad become the focus of radical groups, namely: the movement to implement Islam law with amar makruf nahi mungkar, uphold the khilafah Islamiyah framed in the slogan hijrah and jihad.Â
