What is the best way to add the Arabic keyboard on a macbook pro english keyboard? Stickers?

Either stickers or silicon covers. The covers have the advantage of also protecting your keyboard, but may be more annoying to type on. But you get used to it pretty quickly. For example: https://www.amazon.com/ProElife-Languag … B08CMP6RFW

Depends how you define 'best'. You can change the buttons, have them laser engraved, get stickers, or, what I would do, is buy a bluetooth keyboard that has Arabic for when I need that because I really wouldn't wanna mess in any way with my MBP :)

I like the idea of a silicon cover as I don't want to mess with my keyboard. Do you know if a store sells them here in Lebanon? If not I will try and order them when I go back to Turkey. I have the macbook pro 16inch m1 FYI

Agree, I don't want to mess with my keyboard by modifying the keys in anyway, so it will probably be silicon cover that I can just remove when I am done with it, or an external keyboard as you mentioned, but I might be a bit annoying to setup and switch between AR/EN when I don't need the extenral keyboard
