Several Arabic fonts supplied by Apple are installed by default. If for some reason they are not on your machine, you may have to custom install them from the Mac OS X install DVD.
For example:
Mac OS X 10.4: Fonts list: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1538
Mac OS X 10.5: Fonts list: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1642?locale=fr_FR

You can use other Arabic fonts like:
Scheherazade Regular (OpenType)
Scheherazade Regular (AAT)
Lateef Regular (OpenType)
Lateef Regular (AAT)

These can be downloaded from:
http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page ... s_Download
The download links are at the end of that page.

Several Arabic TTF fonts used on Windows can also be used on Mac OS X.
