While displaying Arabic text, Firefox is adding space between each Arabic letter, which is quite undesirable and is actually messing up the text.

In Firefox (adding space between letters): http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/7442/firefoxhx.png

In Chrome (properly displaying Arabic text): http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/8056/chromeu.png

I want to solve this problem. What should I do for it? Is there any setting I have to change, or should I install another Arabic font (if so, how?)?

It will be fixed in a future Firefox version, but isn't fixed yet in the current Firefox 4 release. There will be an update of Firefox 4 later this month (Apr 26).
Judging from comment comment 49 I assume that the patch has been ported to the Firefox 4 branch, so you may be lucky:
