be patient Ilias
following days after celebrations, are sometimes ... difficult
guests at home+news about Egypt(net)+feast ==> all that together
easy to understand that the translator, is more often busy,
that ... available ... for a time, it's X-Mas for her "ALSO"

Happy New Year & all the best, you are a lucky guy,
your "Pala" is just beautiful, Santa Claus has been generous

OK BIG BOY
here we are, for what was accessible for us
some seems to be in Turkish (supposition) language

on the long pic,
- on top a single proclamation
MASH'ALLAH either WHAT EVER ALLAH WILLS
as "TribalBlades" almost read it, he is good the guy
down the cartouche
unfortunately, should be in Turkish language, unknown from us

the square pic
a very classical proclamation,
but with an unknown word, something specifically Turkish, but very unusual,
this complete proclamation is very well knew, but here it's may be a variant ??
LA SAÎF ILLA ZULFIKAR (or DHULFIKAR) either NO SWORD EXCEPTED ZULFIKAR (or DHULFIKAR)

Happy Feast
