I use below code to have something like this: " محمد125 hasan ". with a limit of being between 3 and 25 characters. but it doesn't work.

(^[ \d\p{Arabic}a-zA-Z0-9 ]{3,25}$)

Plain and simple:

^[\d\p{L}\h]{3,25}$
# match the start (^), digits or any letter 
# and horizontal space three to 25 times
# end of the string/line ($)

In PHP this would be:

$string = 'محمد125 hasan ';
$regex = '~^[\d\p{L}\h]{3,25}$~';
if (preg_match($regex, $string, $match) {
    // do sth. useful here
}

See a demo on regex101.com.

Just use \w with u modifier which means unicode

/^[ \d\p\wa-zA-Z0-9 ]{3,25}$/u
