It just occured to me just as I was reading this
message, what do the Arabic countries currently use as
their standard measurements?  Are they using the same
ratls, etc. as their ancestors did?  If yes, then why
not purchase some measuring cups from your local
Arabic market?  If not, then just forget what I have
just said.
