Both the crescent and star, and the color green, are classic symbols of Islam. In the Pakistani flag, the green color is the main indicator of the country's major religion. The white color stands for other minority faiths. The crescent and the star are also a symbol of progress and light.

The flag originated from the "All India Muslim League", an organization that fought for an independent Muslim state, on the Indian subcontinent soon after the end of the British era. The flag was adopted on August 11th, 1947, three days before Pakistan was proclaimed an independent state.
