Original Note:
No, this is the Shahada. The Shahada has been used by various Islamic groups over the years, but displaying it alone is not a cause for concern, as published by the Network for Police Monitoring (NETPOL). https://netpol.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Counter-Terrorism-Policing-Extremist-Symbols-and-Flags.pdf ^ (see page 5/8) The flag of Saudi Arabia also features the Shahada.
