Haji Jamal Shah, withdrew in Ahmad's favor. Perhaps tribal leaders thought this young leader of a lesser clan would be easy to manipulate. According to tradition, the decision was forced by a well-known dervish, or holy man, who spoke in Ahmad's favor and then placed two leaves of wheat in his turban as an act of coronation. The wheat is depicted in Afghanistan's flag."

"The reformist king Amanullah proclaimed the first national flag in 1919 in keeping with the country's newfound independence; the mosque was now surrounded by sunrays modeled on Ottoman stan-dards. After returning from his famous European trip in 1928, the king proclaimed a new flag on European (and Soviet) models, with three vertical bands: black for the past (and resistance against the British), red for the blood of the country's defenders, and green for hope and peace. The red band bore the arms, a gold sunburst over snowcapped mountains, surmounted by a five-pointed star, all enfolded by wheat sheaves that recalled the Durrani symbol-and also Soviet iconography."
  7. ↑ Wahab, Shaista (꯲꯰꯰꯷) A Brief History of Afghanistan, Infobase Publishing, p. 143 ISBN: 9781438108193. "In the late 19th century, Emir Abdur Rahman flew a black flag (a traditional Muslim military banner) with the royal arms in the center in white: a mosque surmounting crossed arms and surrounded by the Durrani symbol of wheat sheaves. This flag continued in use under Abdur Rahman's successors until 1919, but only over the palace and at military bases and customs offices . . . The reformist king Amanullah proclaimed the first national flag in 1919 in keeping with the country's newfound independence; the mosque was now surrounded by sunrays modeled on Ottoman standards. After returning from his famous European trip in 1928, the king proclaimed a new flag on European (and Soviet) models, with three vertical bands: black for the past (and resistance against the British), red for the blood of the country's defenders, and green for hope and peace.
