Acording to Arabic letters, I need to know if the beginning sound of the country,"Palistine,," is pronounced with a P sound of a F sound. If you can, spell it how it sounds acording to English letters. THANKS.

You are correct. There is no P in Arabic. Usually, the letter B is used for a P.
In the case of Palestine, it is pronounced Falisteen, or something similar. It begins with the Arabic letter that corresponds to F.

YoMera is right, "Falasteen" would be how you pronounce Palestine in Arabic.

It's pronounced with P. Palestine.

Iraqisax is correct, but I'd say it sounds more like "Falasteen" with an "a" rather than "i".
