Ismaili flag wiki

The Ismaili flag is a symbol of the Ismaili Muslim community, which is a branch of Shia Islam. The flag is also known as the "Ismaili Crescent" or "Ismaili Flag of the Fatimid Caliphate".

According to the Ismaili Encyclopedia, the flag is a white field with a black crescent moon and a five-pointed star. The crescent moon represents the Prophet Muhammad, while the star represents the guidance and light of the Imams. The white field represents purity and innocence.

The flag is based on the flag of the Fatimid Caliphate, which was a medieval Islamic dynasty that ruled Egypt and other parts of North Africa from the 10th to the 12th centuries. The Fatimids were a Shia Islamic dynasty that claimed descent from the Prophet Muhammad through his daughter Fatima.

The Ismaili flag is used by the Ismaili Muslim community around the world, and is often displayed at Ismaili mosques, cultural events, and other gatherings. It is also used as a symbol of Ismaili identity and solidarity.
