title: Decode Arabic chars from a linux encoding
body: <p>I'm working on an old file I found on a Linux server and this file contains the Arabic words in the following strange format.</p>
  <pre><code>\350\343\240\317\344\307\345\331\307\...
  </code></pre>
  <p>I don't if the Linux convert the Arabic chars automatically or someone did that himself but I need to understand the Arabic written in that way.</p>
  <p>So, does anyone knows what is the above format/encoding?</p>
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
