Someone with an interest/knowlegde in contemporary arabic typography?

I am working on a project in the middle east and looking for the arabic companion to Geogrotesque - any suggestions on which font to choose?

Thanks!

A Kufi style, maybe?

Linotype Arian?

Parachute just released an Arabic companion for their DIN family. http://blog.parachutefonts.com/?p=1812

Linotype's Frutiger Arabic would work good also and it's a really nice Arabic "Sans Serif"

Also Tarek Atrissi has this geometric font that's really cool I don't know if it's available for licensing, I guess you can contact him about it if you like it.
