In order to be able to write using the Arabic alphabet in a field you just need to apply to it a font that supports this character range. For example, Adobe Arabic. Also, you need to set the Direction setting of the field as Right-to-Left. Both settings can be found under Properties - Appearance.

Validations using JavaScript are also possible, but will require careful coding. You can't include Arabic characters directly in your code, so you will have to refer to them via their unicode values.
