\markup { \override #'(font-name . "new font") "العربية" }
where "new font" is the name of the font to use.
To have a list of all available fonts on the operating system, type
lilypond -dshow-available-fonts x
in a terminal.
But better is to read the "font" section of the notation reference manual.
NR 1.8.3 Fonts
