Hello
This is Arabic.
On the right hand side it says "Bin Isa" (son of Isa)
On the left I am less sure but believe it reads "AlKharrat" (lather, an occupational name like the English family name - Turner)
The image in the middle may represent a piece of lathed/turned wood
Al Kharrat is a family name in Egypt and Syria and undoubtedly other countries in the region
Hope this is helpful
