<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kate Q, post: 9498343, member: 15622&quot;]I know this is way old, but in case anyone is still interested, the Arabic text on the flags says &quot;Allah&quot; (on the right) and &quot;Muhammad&quot; (on the left). The text on the pedestal is talking about Ahmed ar-Rifa&#039;i who founded a Sufi order where some of the followers were into snake charming and such (lit. &quot;This is the place of Sr Ahmed al-Rifai, may Allah be pleased with him&quot;).</p><p><br /></p><p>Edited to add: I said &#039;place&#039;, it&#039;s literally &quot;maqam&quot; which is a shrine or could be a tomb.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
