Ring, Islamic, Sorcerers, Magic Square?

(1/1)

Mayadigger:
Ave!

Copper Alloy; 10.4gm Bezel 21mm x 19mm ca. 10th Century AD or later?

Nine blocks of mystic symbols in three rows within a rectangular bezel decorated with Arabic inscriptions about...?
Uncertain further mystic symbology to either side of the band below the bezel.

Help!

Best to all, Kevin

SC:
While it is popular to label such things as "sorcerer's" it is more likely that they were used as mystical or apotropaic items by a much wider segment of society.  In the same way that wearing a hand anor eye of Fatima doesn't make one a mystic or witch and having a tarot deck doesn't mean one is a professional psychic.
