The last Islamic Confrence on "peace" held in Abuja was just a front to flag off and open a new front on total jihad in Nigeria and to appoint Buhari as its supreme commander in our nation.

you people should just stop this Islamization abracadabra. Are there no Christians in Egypt and other muslem dominated countries.

How can we be coerced into a religion we chose not to practice simply because our president is a muslem?

The Black Flag Of Jihad

A black flag with the shahada inscribed in white was spotted on Jihadist websites from at least 2001. Even though the historical black banner did not have any inscription, this variant is commonly known as al-rāya “the banner” or rayat al-`uqab “banner of the eagle” after the hadith tradition, and has been dubbed the black flag of jihad by western observers. Islamic extremist organizations that used such a black flag include al‑Qaeda, al‑Shabaab, the Islamic Courts Union, the Islamic State of Iraq and Hizbul Islam (2009). Some variant designs depict the second phrase of the shahada in the form of the historical seal of Muhammad.

Historical use

Historically the Abbasid Revolution adopted black for its rāya; for which their partisans were called the musawwids. Their rivals chose other colours in reaction; among these, forces loyal to Marwan II adopted red.

After the revolution, Islamic apocalyptic circles admitted that the Abbasid banners would be black but asserted that the Mahdi’s standard would be black and larger. Anti-Abbasid circles cursed “the black banners from the East”, “first and last”.

The Bábí leader Mullá Husayn-i-Bushru’i raised the Black Standard in his westward march from Mashhad starting 21 July 1848, to proclaim the Báb’s message. The people of Barfurush confronted the march and a series of battles ensued. The Bábís stopped and built the fort Shaykh Tabarsi which developed into one of the most significant battles of the Bábí religion. It is reported the Black Standard flew above the fortress.

The flag flown by the Emirate of Afghanistan under Abdur Rahman Khan (1880–1901) was also solid black.

As Arab nationalism [the creator of the Palestine-Israel conflict] developed in the early 20th century, the black within the Pan-Arab colors was chosen to represent the black banner of Muhammad, while the name of “The Eagle” gave rise to the eagle depicted in the flag of the Federation of Arab Republics (1972), which survives as the modern flag of Egypt.

Origin

Before Islam, visible standards were used at least in the Roman army to identify the core of the legion – the Eagles. By the middle 600s CE, the Arabs were using standards for the same purpose. Among the Arabs the rāya was a square banner; not to be confused with the liwā’ or `alam, an identifying mark like a red turban.

Islamic tradition states that the Quraysh had a black liwā’ and a white-and-black rāya. It further states that Muhammad had an `alam in white, nicknamed “The Young Eagle (العقاب al-`uqāb)”; and (relevant here) a rāya in black, said to be made from his wife Aisha’s head-cloth. This larger flag was known as the Eagle. The name may have referred to the Byzantine eagle.

The tradition reports Muhammad said that the advent of the Mahdi would be signaled by “Black Standards” proceeding from Khorasan.

At Siffin it was said that `Ali used the liwā’ of the Prophet, which as noted above was white; but those who fought with him did use black banners as well.

Today we find a multitude of flags in the Muslim world. These have been carefully designed with colours and symbols to represent characteristics of the nation state. In Islam, they have not been given a choice concerning what type of flag to use even down to the colour. The shariah has specified the type of official flag the Khilafah will use and therefore they believe they cannot deviate from this.

Flags representing Jihad and the Caliphate

The Taliban replaced their solid white flag with a white flag inscribed with the shahada in black as they took power in Afghanistan in 1997. Various Muslim armed groups have use the black flags inscribed with the shahada in white since ca. 2001.

During the 2000s, it became popular in mujahid terminology to refer to the black flag as al-raya and the white flag as al-liwa’, after the terms of the black and white flags flown by Muhammad according to the hadith [The Hadith is the war manual of Islam]. The white flag is sometimes identified as the “flag of the Caliphate” while the black one is dubbed the “flag of Jihad”.

The flag of the Khilafa (Caliphate) terrorist movement.

The Khilafa seeks to infiltrate and spread all over the world and reestablish the Caliphate. Infiltration takes place via mass immigration and rapid population growth. The movement then use gradual means to indoctrinate society from within: propaganda is brought to schools, lawfare used to quiet critics, infiltration used through jobs in all levels of government and thereafter little by little policies and laws are changed to provide easier continued mass immigration and “special rights” for Muslims. Once the population is large enough, the terrorism begins: either you convert and bend to Islam, or you are killed.

Taliban flags used in Afghanistan. Black Islamic writing on white. Islamic text reads “I bear witness that there is no deity other than Allah and that Muhammad is his servant and Messenger”.

The white flag is referred to as al-liwa’, and is also used in combination with the black flag by the Khilafa/Caliphate movement.

Flag used by ISIS / the Islamic State of Iraq (2007), al‑Shabaab and other jihadists during the 2000s, including the Syrian arm of al-Qaeda fighting against the kuffar (or as Obama and the EU likes to call them; “rebels” and “freedom fighters”).
