Unfortunately, Arabic is not supported until Android 3.0

If you are talking about the Holy Quran, then the best suggestion I can give you is using images for versions older than 3.0 and the regular text for the earlier ones.

I have no idea if this helps, assuming you have an arabic font: http://www.barebonescoder.com/2010/05/android-development-using-custom-fonts/

Shouldn't matter what else they have installed.
