History and Evolution of the Jordan Flag

The flag of Jordan has a rich history dating back to the Arab Revolt of 1916. It is inspired by the flag used during this revolt against Ottoman rule. Officially adopted in 1928, Jordan's flag has remained a strong symbol of the nation's sovereignty and unity.

The flag’s design is based on the Pan-Arab colors, which also symbolize the Hashemite dynasty. Over time, the flag has become a powerful representation of Jordan’s heritage and independence.

Symbolism of the Jordan Flag

The Jordanian flag consists of three horizontal stripes: black, white, and green, along with a red triangle on the hoist side. These colors symbolize the four major Arab dynasties:

• Black: The Abbasid Caliphate
• White: The Umayyad Caliphate
• Green: The Fatimid Caliphate
• Red Triangle: Represents the Great Arab Revolt and the Hashemite dynasty

Inside the red triangle is a seven-pointed white star, symbolizing the seven verses of the first chapter of the Quran (Al-Fatiha) and unity among the Arab people.

Cultural Significance of the Jordan Flag

The Jordanian flag is prominently displayed during national holidays such as Independence Day (May 25) and public celebrations. Schools, government buildings, and homes proudly raise the flag as a symbol of national pride.

Proper flag etiquette in Jordan includes raising the flag high and ensuring it is treated with respect, as it represents the country’s unity and independence.
