Jean, you convinced me.
I think I have understood the reason of the confusion created by the interpretation of the monogram.
If you examine the writing of Allah in islamic, you will certainly notice that the monogram on the pendok is very similar, but the letters are written in the correct sequence and in reverse sequence. If you show it to a person who knows Arabic only, he will be oriented to read what the monogram looks like to him. To have a more clear idea please look at the writing of the 99 names of Allah in Wikipedia.
