Place_Name_Here Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 (edited) for many of us on the forum im willing to bet that, like me you cannot read arabic. It is the goal of this thread to post pictures of unknown words and hopefully the few out there that can read it can help us transelate them into english, so that we might better understand our hookahs and apprisiate the wonderfull calligraphy that oranates our egyptian and syrain hookahs Edited May 6, 2008 by Place_Name_Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont see a 'Keef' in there. I debated it between 'Sheem' and 'Seen' There are the letters I am reading:AlefLamAyn -3een-Seen or SheenRaYa/YeenEdit: Quick referencehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_alphabet So either 'Al Assry' or 'Al Ashree' QUOTE (Yamin @ May 6 2008, 08:01 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I STILL see al masriI dont see a 'Meem/Mim' in there [M in Arabic].

SmokinMoose Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 (edited) It's either Al - Masry or Al - 3asry but i think its Al - Masry because it makes more sense to me and i dont think Al 3asry means anything. Edited May 7, 2008 by SmokinMoose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
