Summary

Flag of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran" class="extiw" title="w:Iran">Iran</a>. The tricolor flag was introduced in 1906, but after the Islamic Revolution of 1979 the Arabic words 'Allahu akbar' ('God is great'), written in the Kufic script of the Qur'an and repeated 22 times, were added to the red and green strips where they border the white central strip.
The <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.isiri.org/portal/files/std/1.htm">official ISIRI standard</a> (translation at <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="//flagspot.net/flags/ir'.html">FotW</a>) gives two slightly different methods of construction for the flag: a compass-and-straightedge construction used for <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Iran_(official).svg" title="File:Flag of Iran (official).svg">File:Flag of Iran (official).svg</a>, and a "simplified" construction sheet with rational numbers used for this file.
