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!
