Flags are pieces of some mended clothes but cover the whole conception of any state, company, or organization. The pieces of clothes have enclosed the ideologies in every single thread and present them to others with their flying property in the wind. Every flag is the symbol and representation of its affiliation.

However, the globe is divided into different regions and each region hoists a rectangular cloth as a symbol of its national integration and ideology. Likewise, Pakistan has adopted the flag that is comprised of Crescent Moon and Star in a length of dark green color larger than the vertical white stripe attached to it. The conception behind this combination is all about the ideology of Pakistan. The green portion represents the Muslim proportion in the country whereas the white strip represents the religious minorities. Moreover, the crescent directs towards the fullness means progression, and the five-ended star points towards light and knowledge.

The true essence of the flag is to represent Pakistan’s commitment to Islam, the Islamic world, and the rights of religious minorities. The founder of the nation devised the flag himself based on the concept of the creation of this country.

“Is Parcham Ke Saye Talay Hum Ik Hay Hum Ik Hay” is the most sung song and narrates the real meaning of the flag. However, it should not be just the lyric for singing but to adopt in real sense. And AikQaum(one nation) aims to gather the nation under this flag.
