Have you already gone to system prefs/keyboard/input sources and used the + and add buttons to activate an Arabic keyboard, and then selected that in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen. That is how you type Arabic on a Mac.

Whether Autocad supports Arabic input you will have to ask on the forums run by the people who make that app.

What happens when you try to type Arabic?

Yes, you must ask Autocad support, it is up to them to make sure their app can do Unicode Arabic and other languages. OS X only does Unicode.
