iOS 4.2 is supposed to bring better support for Arabic. I don't know if this will include being able to swipe the other way in iBooks.

Please forward your concerns to Apple's Feedback page.

No, I don't know anything about apps, that is a totally separate system from the iBookstore.

If you want to use the iBookstore, I think you would have to produce an English book with parallel Arabic translation (until they start accepting Arabic only books).
