Hi, Ahmed, As the Java specification defines, the .properties file contains only characters in ISO-8859-1, also known as Latin-1. Therefore you cannot enter arabic characters in a properties file.
You have two options here: 1. Unicode escape your arabic characters, using converters, like this one here > http://www.rishida.net/tools/conversion/ (what works for you appears under JavaScript escapes) or 2. Use an xml file for language properties.
