The [[national flag]] of [[Pakistan]] was designed by [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syed_Amir-uddin_Kedwaii Syed Amir uddin Kedwaii] and was based on the original flag of the [[Muslim League]]. It was adopted by the [[Constituent Assembly of Pakistan]] on [[August 11]], [[1947]], just days before independence. The flag is referred to in the national anthem as ''{{lang|ur|Parcham-e-Sitāra-o-Hilāl}}'' in [[Urdu]] (lit. Flag of the Crescent and Star). The flag comprises a dark green field, representing the Muslim majority of Pakistan, with a vertical white stripe in the hoist, that represents the [[Christians]] and other multi-faith communities of the country. In the centre is a white crescent moon, representing progress, and a white five-pointed star, representing light and knowledge.<br />
