The color green (Arabic: أخضر, romanized: 'akhḍar) has a number of traditional associations in Islam. It holds profound traditional associations within Islam, embodying themes of paradise, purity, and prosperity. In the Quran, green is linked with paradisiacal imagery, symbolizing the serenity of paradise. Green was adopted by the Shi'ites, and remains particularly popular in Shi'ite iconography, but it is also widely used in by Sunni states, notably in the flag of Saudi Arabia and the flag of Pakistan.
