It is not Indian but rather it is Persian. Tabar, in Farsi means Axe, tabar zin would be a axe that one hangs on the saddle of a horse for war. This seems to be nicely made with lots of gold work done to it, maybe ceremonial. The text is Persian, I'll translate it maybe at a later time.
I agree with DOM as far as "Islamic" is concerned. To call something Islamic The writting not only HAS to be Arabic but Arabic from the Holy Qur'an.
