You set (or your DBA set) NLS to Arabic, right?
You set the locale for your process running the SQL to Arabic? UTF16 at least. Since you mention Windows I'm assuming unicode:

make sure your sql query is set the character set correctly either windows-1256 (cp1256) or utf-8. others might use latin1 as default for arabic

pass --default-character-set=XXXXXX to your mysql prompt line
