Original Note:
This is neither an ISIS flag nor an Al-Qaeda flag. It is the “Shahada”, an Islamic declaration of faith in God and recognition of Prophet Muhammad as His messenger, which is also one of the Five Pillars of Islam. Some organizations use the Shahada in their flags. https://www.metmuseum.org/learn/educators/curriculum-resources/art-of-the-islamic-world/unit-one/the-five-pillars-of-islam https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shahada
