The Black Standard is one of the flags flown by Muhammad at times of war in Muslim tradition. It was historically used by Abu Muslim in his uprising leading to the Abbasid Revolution in 747 and is also associated with the Abbasid Caliphate. It is also a symbol and is associated with Islamic eschatology (heralding the advent of the Mahdi).
The symbol was used as a cultural symbol in the time of Al-Andalus in the Iberian Peninsula, appearing on the coins. [citation needed] In addition, the use of it in so many areas [which?] led to its name being changed to "the star of Abd al-Rahman I". From Al-Andalus it was exported to the rest of the Arab world.
