Red Crescent n. (originally) the Turkish ambulance society identified and symbolized by a red crescent; (in later use) the equivalent of the Red Cross (red cross n. 3b) in Muslim countries. [After Ottoman Turkish Hilāl-i Aḥmer, Turkish Hilal-i Ahmer ( < Arabic hilāl crescent + Persian -i, suffix connecting a noun to its qualifier + Arabic aḥmar red) in contemporary names of the organization: originally Osmanli Hilāl-i Aḥmer Cem‘iyeti (1877), later Türkiye Hilal-i Ahmer Cemiyeti (1923); compare Turkish Kızılay ( < kızıl red, crimson + ay moon) in the modern names of the organization: Türkiye Kızılay Cemiyeti (1935), Türkiye Kızılay Derneği (1947). In recent use partly directly after Arabic al-Hilāl al-Aḥmar ‘Red Crescent’, which in this sense is ultimately based on the use of the phrase in Ottoman Turkish.]
