Mohammad Al-Ani, you really found your real problem - your page is not UTF-8 page! %xx form is url-encoded non-ANSI string as only 7-bit symbols can be used in URLs. That's why browers encode non-ANSI symbols and then they are automatically decoded by Cake before go into params. Some of browsers show encoded string in address bar and you see %xx string, some - not encoded and you see "real word". Word %E3%DE %C7%E1 you saw in Firefox is wrong word, possibly encoded using windows-1256 as you indicated above. But Cake expects UTF-8, and "real word" in url-encoded form should looks like %D9%85%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%84
Correct all your pages encodings to UTF-8 and problem will go away!
