Did you want to say "adaaB arz hei"? It is a salute or salam. People point to their head, the most important part of body, thus saying that the person in front is respectable.

Saudi Arabia did not exist at that time. It would be more proper to say that it started from Arabia or Hejaz.

I believe its origins are not excusive to Hijaz.
I am inclined to believe it's origins actually come from ancient Persia... which were then adopted by all lesser tribes.
