The green five-pointed star that appears on the national flag of Morocco is often called the seal of Solomon. Its origin could be traced to the Babylonian Empire, c. 2000 BC. The pentagram it could have represented the goddess Ishtar, assimilated by the Muslims to Fatima, the daughter of the prophet.

The star is totally false. The star symbolizes each point, that is, the five prayers of the Muslim day and the green color of Islam.
True, a Muslim told me, but I don't remember, what the five prayers mean, I only remember that one point of the star means the obligation that Musumans have to donate a part of their benefits to people in need, nothing more, a greeting.
The red flag. It means strength, courage and dedication and the green color is the color that Islam has given it and the star means the 5 pillars of Islam. The testimony of faith. The prayer. Fasting Give alms and go to Mecca (only who can). The seal of solomon is (in the name of god the messiah) what he wrote to the queen of sheba. Thanks
How interesting the history of Morocco and I am very interested in continuing to discover the fascinating and in particular, magical history of this country, its culture, customs and traditions, because my goal is to travel to it.
There is no evidence that the King of Morocco is a grandson of the prophet or of his family and this is well reflected in his acts of a monadic9 or hypocritical king.
Ismale, if there is evidence, there is a huge scheme of the family of the prophet and his descendants and it records those who are being born until now, and the king of Morocco is a descendant of the prophet
Liana, there is much to learn, before going to such a different country. It is beautiful but study more before
