Hi

huge Muslim country (biggest than Arabic countries all together)
where arabic alphabet is in use, for religious purpose
even if the population doesn't speak at all that language, as native

sense of reading <------

Hi, good day
two comments;
- at left side possible to read the date ; 1287 either 1870 Gregorian calendar

- at right side, the quality of the macro is too weak, and the sentence seems cut ??
