Ağrabî!
It seems like a proper noun.
However, if there's a typo and it is supposed to be "Ağır Abi", then I would suggest "tough guy"

: Baş harfinin büyük yazılması nedeni ile ben de özel isim olduğu kanısındayım. Sık kullanılan bir isim çünkü. Kabeye gitmeye niyetlenen birine ağır abi demiyorlardır inşallah :)

: Bence de özel isim. İnternet'te Ağrap için yöresel ağızla (Elazığ köyleri, Malatya-Pütürge, Sivas Divriği bölgelerinde) akrebin söyleniş biçimi diyor ve bizde de Ağrap soyadlı çok kişi var.

O Arab!

If it refers to a specific person, for ex. Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi, O Arabi!

Urabi
"Colonel Ahmed Orabi or Ahmed Urabi (Egyptian Arabic: ʻorābi, pronounced [ˈʕoɾɑːbi]; April 1, 1841 - September 21, 1911), (Arabic: أحمد عرابي; also known as Orabi Pasha, Urabi Pasha and Ahmed Pasha Urabi el-Masri; his name was also transliterated Ahmad Arabi in older sources).." (see Ref.1)
since "Urabi revolt" gets many more hits in Google than "Orabi revolt" or "Arabi's revolt", I think it would be more appropriate to use "Urabi".
The only reference where I could find the same usage (Ağrabî) is provided in Ref.2- (there they are talking about the same person, i.e. Urabi/Arabi Pasha-4th paragraph from the bottom)

the most wretched person
in Arabic, the stem of the word is "garib"=wretched person; so, the superlative form of the "garib" appears to be "agrabi"=the most wretched person.
