Is hezbollah a part of the jihadist network?

There is no such thing as "the Jihadist Network". Different Jihadist organizationss work in parallel or against each other. (For example, Jaysh al-Mahdi and al-Qaeda are both Jihadist organizations that have killed each others' members - in addition to numerous other victims.) Hezbollah is a Jihadist organization and they even claim that they are fighting a long-term Jihad against Israel and the Sunni Terrorists (usually referring to Islamic State, but also smaller organizations).

Is An Ardent Land a correct use of the word Ardent?

Not in this particular area. That sounds confusing. If you are talking about a person in a particular country you would identify him by his country, likewise with Religion. You could say an ardent Muslim and mean a Jihadist, or an ardent Christian and mean a Crusader. You could go back into history and say in 1939 he was an ardent German and mean Nazi. You would not say in 1939, Germany was an ardent land.

What is the largest terrorist group?

The question as posed is difficult to answer, because "largest" can mean a lot of different things as can "terrorist". If the word "largest" is meant to mean most ubiquitous, then the answer is certainly Al Qaeda, especially since the American Invasion of Iraq. Al Qaeda operates like a McDonald's, franchising cells across any country in which it exists. In addition, smaller jihadist organizations will reach out to Al Qaeda for funding and the name recognition. In return, Al Qaeda will claim that this smaller independent jihadist organization is part of its ranks, even though their objectives may be different than those of the Al Qaeda leadership. If the word "largest" is meant to mean the largest internal membership, then the answer is a lot murkier. Accurate accounts of organizational membership almost never exist because the cell structure is loose. In addition, most individuals so affiliated only know the names of those fellow group members that they are very close to so as to limit the efficacy of post-capture interrogation. This makes it different to properly estimate a single cell, let alone figure out how extensive the cell network is.
