Islamic inscriptions, such as "takbir" which is on this flag, as well as the "shahada" which is on Saudi Arabia's flag, are usually considered holy and sacred, and they are not usually made into handflags, or other merchandises such as t-shirts or whatsoever.

I'm only just to point things out and doesn't want to offend anyone by this.

Switzerland denmark norway sweden and some others have the logo of a cross which is a christian symbol ...

Turkey algeria tunisia iran pakistan etc ... have the islamic symbol of crescent ...

Maybe the star of david is considered holy for jews ,,, i have no idea ...

and perhaps there are other flags in the world that may contain religious creed or political symbol that may not represent some minorties... but in terms of politics and law minorities always must show respect to the national flag ....


top eleven developers don't have time to redesign a special jersey for each of 198 country ... so they just made the jerseys of each country as a copy paste of the national flag ... nothing wrong with that in my opnion
