Here the second keris I would like information about. This one is about Islamic text.
Can you guys give me all the information you have and possibly a translation of the text on the blade?
Also references to books were these kind of islamic text on blades can be found, would be appreciated!
The length of the keris is 29,5 cm (11,61 inches).
Thank you very much for your effords!

This is part of Quran Surah Alan'am Chapter 6 verse 103: laa tudrikuhu alabshwaru wahua yudriku alabshwara wahua allathiiful khobiir: Vision perceives Him not, but He perceives [all] vision; and He is the Subtle, the Acquainted.

And this is also part of Quran Surah Yusuf Chapter 12 Verse 4: iz qwola yuusufu li abiihi yaaa abati innii roaiitu ahada 'ashara kaukabau washshamsha walqomara roaituhum lii saajidiin: [Of these stories mention] when Yusuf said to his father, "O my father, indeed I have seen [in a dream] eleven stars and the sun and the moon; I saw them prostrating to me."
