Default Sudanese Arm Dagger

Hello All!

This old worn dagger has been floating around my collection for quite a while, in fact this is the dagger that led me to this forum. The sheath is some sort of crocadile skin that has shrunk very tight, and the blade shows sighns of heavy use, sharpining, and corrosion. On one side of the blade there is a flowing water design and on the other is a inscription most likely in arabic. Chould someone please translate this inscription?It also has nice silver fittings on it with one solid silver stud missing, keep in mind I polished the silver. Truley I am not sure where it came fromthis is just an educated guess.

Mark...
