Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When sending a form that requests a Date the days of the week start differently than in Saudi Arabia which has a work week of Sunday to Thursday with Friday and Saturday as weekend. Because of this, the date has difficulty being selected - below are a couple of screenshots.
Describe the solution you'd like
A little unclear how this can be solved - perhaps something in the date picker can specify Arabic if the users are using the Nextcloud Arabic interface.

Research direction
Start at the date-picker entry point used by Nextcloud Forms and inspect how the Arabic interface or locale determines weekday ordering. Confirm the expected Saudi Arabian week pattern—Sunday through Thursday workdays with Friday and Saturday as the weekend—and define completion as Arabic users being able to select dates without the current ordering problem.
