Kamelslaget fandt sted ved Basra i 656 og var det første slag mellem to stridende muslimske hære. Kaliffen Ali besejrede i slaget en oprørshær, der var ledet af Muhammeds enke Aisha og Zubayr ibn al-Awwam.[2] Aisha red på en kamel under slaget, hvilket har givet begivenheden dens navn.

This Black flag has been the flag of various Afghan rulers: Flag of Zengid dynasty and Flag of Afghanistan (pre-1901) and the flag of the Black Guards. This flag has also been the flag of the Sadozai Sudhan rulers of Sidhnuti

This can be used to represent the Abbasid Caliphate, since while the concept of rectangular national flags did not exist during Abbasid times, black was the dynastic color of the Abbasids and the "black banner" of the Abbasids is famous in Islamic history. It was also used by many Islamic dynasties in different regions of the world till the late 19th century. It is also used by anarchist groups and pirates.
