Encoding URL contains Arabic words

Question

I have url for audio file that contains some Arabic words and spaces

http://globalmedia.cc/Testing/CMS/main/مسلسلات/مسلسلات كوميدية /يوميات ونيس/الحلقة الثانية.mp3

I tried

URI uri = new URI(url.getProtocol(), url.getUserInfo(), url.getHost(), url.getPort(), url.getPath(), url.getQuery(), url.getRef());
        url = uri.toURL();

the result is // not working

http://globalmedia.cc/Testing/CMS/main/مسلسلات/مسلسلات%20كوميدية%20/يوميات%20ونيس/الحلقة%20الثالثة.mp3

When i but this link in Google Chrome then copy it again it's become

http://globalmedia.cc/Testing/CMS/main/%D9%85%D8%B3%D9%84%D8%B3%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%AA/%D9%85%D8%B3%D9%84%D8%B3%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%AA%20%D9%83%D9%88%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%A9%20/%D9%8A%D9%88%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%AA%20%D9%88%D9%86%D9%8A%D8%B3/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AD%D9%84%D9%82%D8%A9%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AB%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%8A%D8%A9.mp3

and this worked for me. I want to do what Google Chrome does by java code? Hint: URL dose not contains parameters, So i want to encode URL as is. Any help!

Finally i found this answer and its working http://stackoverflow.com/a/21332078/3512164 — Ibrahim Disouki, Mar 16 '15 at 19:48

Try this:

String url = "http://globalmedia.cc/Testing/CMS/main/مسلسلات/مسلسلات كوميدية /يوميات ونيس/الحلقة الثانية.mp3";
        try {
            urlEncoded = URLEncoder.encode(url, "utf-8");
        } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
System.out.println("Encoded URL: "+urlEncoded);

Encoding URL contains Arabic words
