Question Text on rencong

I found this rencong this weekend. I don't think it's very old, but I found an arabic (?) text on the blade. Could anyone translate ?

This rencong has a copper (?) blade. The handle and sheath are made from horn. My guess is that it's a tourist piece. Anyone has another suggestion ?
