The black flag of ISIS says that Allah is the prophet of Muhammad!
Reader comment on item: Turkish Support for ISIS
Submitted by dhimmi no more (United States), Jun 27, 2014 at 14:20
Dr. Pipes
If you read what is written on the black flag of ISIS/ISIL it says
لا اله الا الله
Or there is no God but Allah
Then it says
الله رسول محمد
This means Allah (is) the prophet of Muhammad! I just could not believe it
Dr. Pipes I urge anyone who knows his Arabic to comment on this little disaster

Daniel Pipes replies:
In Arabic calligraphy, one reads from the bottom up, so this flag reads
Muhammad is the prophet of God," and not the other way around.
