Thanks again for your translation assistance. Here are pictures of the piece I believe with Farsi inscription.

One the first pic the top one is the Shahaada, however the last part of is readable (محمد رسول الله ) Mohammad Rasoul ullah. Under it یاعلی Yaa Ali is readable. The rest, I could not make anything out of it, I tried to make sense of it in Farsi, Pashtu and could not make out anything coherent out it. Could be Arabic, but who knows. If I can't make something properly I just leave it, I'm not gonna be like this could be this or that, it wont do the translation any justice.
