(then it moves to another quranic verse) If you have shot your bow, it is not you who have shot, but it is God.

Bottom inscription makes no sense to me except for the repeated "Ha Mim" which are 2 letters common in Quran that no one understands.

Will try to translate the other photo's soonish.

FANTASTIC!
Thanks Abdullatif.
If the date is 1945, could it be refering to the war do you think?
