KNOW ALL about the national flag of Afghanistan 

The Afghan national flag is quite recent as it was adopted in 2003! It is the national flag of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. Its composition and design are very similar to the old flag of the Kingdom of Afghanistan (1930-1973) from which it was inspired. It has a detail that was not been included in the old version of the flag: the addition of the Shahada (Islam's profession of faith proclaiming "I attest that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad is his prophet") above the country's emblem. In addition, the golden yellow colour of the country's emblem has been changed from pure red to yellow gold. The country's coat of arms on the new 2013 flag is white.

It is a tricolour flag with three black, red and green stripes. Like many other Muslim countries in the world, it has the Pan-Arab colours: like the Yemeni flag, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Egypt, United Arab Emirates.

These three colours: black, red, green have long been used on all the old flags of Afghanistan and have the following symbolism: black to symbolize the independence of the 19th century country, red for the struggle for independence and green for the colour of success and the proclamation of independence. Afghanistan obtained its official and final independence from the United Kingdom in 1919.

Afghanistan's national emblem features the design of a mosque with a mihrab that indicates the qibla (the direction that indicates Mecca). Mecca is, as everyone knows, the highest place in Islam to which several thousand Muslim pilgrims go every year. This national emblem has been a traditional symbol of Afghans for decades.
