I think the tittle of this thread may be misleading but i made it clear. The flag can stay as it is but the meaning should be changed as their is no mention in Quran and by Prophet Mohammed PBUH that symbols can represent Islam.

I think what mythbuster is saying is-having present pakistani flag is okay..but considering it as a symbol of islam is wrong..many people consider this moon and star as a symbol of islam but it is in fact a pre islamic turkish symbol.Pakistanis should either stop considering this stuff as an islamic symbol or change the flag to an islamic one-which would be pure black flag.

But the flag does not represent Islam, now does it. It's not an islamic flag, it's a Pakistani flag.

Exactly. I do not know what is so hard for rest of the people to comprehend that?

I think you need to go back to the 1st post and read it again.

The Star in the flag represent Islam and 5 Pillars of Islam. My problem is, a symbol that originates from Pagan religion should not represent Islam because
Quran nor Prophet Mohammed has allowed anyone to use symbols for Islam representation.

 

[Ahmad]

well, star and moon existed and weer used long before the pagans. you are making an issue out of non issue.

Ok, then let the colour Green represent Islam and let the star and crescent represent something else. It is all interpretation anyways. What material difference does it make?

 

[MM_Haider]

Yes the Crescent Moon symbol comes from Central Asia. Yes, its pagan, but so is the Cross for Christians.

I have heard it originally comes from the Ottoman ruling class(popularized by them) which came from Central Asia. Its a pre-Islamic Turkic symbol.

the kids of PDF never stop trolling...

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

Yes lets change the flags for which millions died... n Our elders fought.

Myth_buster_1, have all other problems gone away that you're forced to pick at trivial things like the flag?
