Standing Up For The National Flag
Here is the link to Dr. Israr’s video. https://youtu.be/e2Va18Vslhg He is right when he says that if a flag or an anthem represets something against Islam then standing up in respect for it is wrong. He is absolutely incorrect that it is a form of shirk. If it is, then standing up for guests, parents or respectable persons is a shirk too. He did not explain how he concluded that standing up for a symbol a shirk. Shirk is only when we consider someone to be god or god like or belper of god in creation and management of universes and if we consider someone beget Allah or if he is begotten.
