the script is arabic and in arabic language. i don't understand arabic but on the sampir two words i recognize is Ali and zulfakar.there is the word Allah also on the sampir and the handle.

Ali is the fourth caliph and zulfakar is his famous sword.

"There is no hero like 'Ali and no sword like Zulfaqar"

This is a phrase often found on weapons throughout the Dar al Islam.
