Saudi Arabia flag, a flag which is used by the Saudi government since March
fifteen, 1973. It is a green flag with a sword and a phrase (There is no god but Allah, Mohammad is the Messenger of God) written on it, and their color is white. When king Abdulaziz became the king 1902, he ordered to add a sword on the flag.The flag designer is Hafeth Wahba an Egyptian guy. The Green color and bold arabic writing often shows on Islam, and the sword symbolizes strength while the phrase symbolizes the Islamic rule of the kingdom. Before, Saudi Arabia’s flag was different. It was all green with two swords across each other and a palm in the middle. They also made different flags for different usage for example they made special flags for the air forces and another one for navy. The usage of the main flag is actually limited and that is because of Alshahada ,the written phrase on the flag. We as Saudi people don't use the flag on the shirts or we don't go to the restrooms with the flag or any dirty place and that also to avoid humiliating Alshahada.
As for me ,I liked our flag because I usually like the flags that has a meaning or a message to the world like in Saudi flag the symbols show strength , pride and courage. Also one more nice thing about our flag is that ,it is the only flag with Iraq's flag which has a writing on it. Usually when people see it or hear about it they wonder .

  1. This is very interesting though there are other flags with writing on them. I think that Iraqi and the Saudi flags are the only ones with Arabic on them right?
    I have seen the old logo that you described before, but I didn't know that it was on the saudi flag.
