• 27/06/2011 — Scottish Islamic (register-of-tartans, record)
• undated — Scottish Islamic Corporate Tartan Tartan Number: 10644. Earliest known date: 27/06/2011 The Scottish Islamic Tartan weaves together the different strands of Scottish and Muslim heritage creating a fabric for the future. Scottish academic Dr Azeem Ibrahim, developed this concept after consulting leading Islamic scholars around the world - Shaikh Humza Yousaf, Imam Zaid Shakir and Dr Umar Abd-Allah. In Scotland, he sought advice from Shaikh Amer Jamil, Scotland's leading Islamic scholar. The theological explanation of the design is as follows: blue represents the Scottish Flag; green represents the colour of Islam; five white lines running through the pattern represent the five pillars of Islam; six gold lines represent the six articles of faith; the black square represents the Holy Kabah.
