Some time ago thankfully I got a code to use English language in arabic sheet music instead of italian from Harm (Thomas Morley). (I think he offered the code free for public use? See:
https://www.mail-archive.com/address@hidden/msg103827.html )

I added the code from the description of the maqam groups
(See: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/arabic-music.html )
from arabic.ly.

So now I can use the key signature of a maqam simply by name as it works with arabic.ly . I safed it to the other LP libs and can use it simply with the usual line
\include  arabice.ly
(The added "e" should remind me to the usage of English and prevent a naming collision with arabic.ly, the italian version.)

The idea may be of interest for some special interest LP users? Should become a LP standard - IMO.
