unfortunately for you, it's seems not be a Koranic mention or verse,
as "kai" was expecting ... hard luck ... otherwise the matter could be easy (for us)

the language used is a kind of "Pidgin" (a very basic language
which is used to communicate between cultures)

definitively, it's not in traditional Arabic language

bienvenu sur ce forum, je suis un des rares Français le fréquentant,
malheureusement ton domaine est absolument inconnu pour moi
ce sera une occasion pour moi, de compléter mon éducation.

I will more detailed pictures of the text soon ...
What is the use of putting such text on a weapon ?
