Riddah interpreted by fuqahā’ as those who leave Islam. The punishment was killed based on hadith “man baddala dīnahu faqtulūh.” That understanding is different from the description of the Qur'an in the related verses that actually gives punishment neither physical, but non-physical. Those verses are: al-Ḥajj: 11, al-Mā’idah: 54, al-Naḥl: 106, al-Nisā’: 137, Āli ‘Imrān: 86, and al-Baqarah: 217. Study of the verses of the Qur’an shows that none of the text with ṣāriḥ-lafẓiyyah approach that lead to aggressive and emotional attitude to the suspect of riddah. On the other hand the Qur’an asserted that the type of the punishment is eschatological and negates physical punishments. This qualitative research will intends to make reconstruction of riddah meaning and its legal implications. With a historical approach, juridical, philosophical, ideological and comparative of the riddah meaning contained in the Koran, hadīth, and socio-historical perspective, then the reconstruction of the meaning of riddah should be understood to be more humane, comprehensive, and in accordance with maqāsid sharī'ah.
