I mean, you're being pedantic here about language. It is not an "originally" Islamic symbol. It was adopted after the fall of Constantinople. 800+ years after Islam was first revealed. Does this phrasing suit your sensibilities? 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
In any case, that's exactly my point, thank you for understanding it.
The fact is: neither you nor I or anyone knows what it originally meant and why they did designed it this way. And surely you cannot use this symbol to deduct that you can see stars (or Venus) through the moon, or within it.
I wasn't trying to prove anything but the shortcoming of this as evidence. You clearly understood that.
