Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities Gurugrace,


I see that you're seeing Arabic language when receiving iMessages. I can understand your concern, and I'd be happy to help.


Let's have you double check your keyboard settings to make sure that is set correctly. The article below will help, if needed.


About the keyboards settings on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


If everything checks out okay in the keyboard settings, respond back with the answers to the following questions.


  1. Is this the only app you're seeing this happen in?
  2. Which version of software are you using?
  3. Does this only happen with a specific contact, or all contacts?


I look forward to hearing back from you.
