Yes. Java handles all Unicode characters and treats them all equally.

i am wondering, it is possible for me if i want to read a arabic input from the other file or hardcoded?

If there is thousand of arabic character (example a arabic speech file)?

How can i retrieve the character from the arabic document file?

or put the input through the keyboard to any jTextField such as we treat the latin character?

The console where you're printing this to most likely does not support Arabic characters (many Console don't support much beyond ISO-8859-1), so the fact that the characters don't print properly doesn't mean much.

You can use the String.charAt method to check whether the string contains the proper Arabic characters.
