Hi Dom,
Thanks for the input. I think that last time, my picture taking skills failed us somewhat, and you thought the language might even be persian?
But the pictures were far less clear. At least we are sure it is Arabic now, hopeufully someone will have a clue what it is saying... Insa'allah.
No need to say sorry, you are always generous with your time when helping your monolingual comrades here.
May I ask why it is a difficult form? How does it differ from the Arabic that you usually deal with? (please forgive my lack of understanding)
I had assumed that the panels were religious verses, but I can only see 'allah' in the top right panel, so I wondered if it is one long passage in six parts?

Kind Regards
Gene
