Sigil is a indeed a Open Source ePub editor unlike Calibre, which is primarily a management and conversion tool. Both use the Webkit rendering engine, which supports Arabic.
The neat thing about Sigil is that it supports regular expressions (placeholders).
For example, if you open your ePub with it, you could use the following search expression in the Find box:
Code:
[َ|ً|ِ|ٍ|ُ|ٌ|ّ|ْ|ٰ]
to find and replace
all diacritics in the ePub. (It looks kind of weird because of the BBS software, but you can simply copy and paste it into Sigil.)
(Select Mode: Regex, Look: All HTML Files and then hit the Replace All button.) Depending on the file size and your hardware this might take a while.

This display may look like Arabic, but it's not, because the letters are disjointed.
