Help with Translation

This is a Saudi presentation sword that I believe was made between 1950 and 1970 (the 1928 "sovereign" can be safely ignored). That is just a guess that I base on the quality of the sword. I've handled enough of these now to understand that, generally speaking, the older they are the better their quality. This is a heavy, solid, well made sword that I am happy to have in my collection. I could use some help though with the Arabic text running the length of the blade. TIA!
