I have seen similar writing on algerian coins
Non est totum quod splendet ut aurum
Rijkdom bestaat niet uit het hebben van veel bezittingen, maar in het hebben van weinig behoeften
I dont think its Algeria. At least not ottoman. It doesnot looks like neither Manghir, nor Asper .

Could be a Mughal Elichpur Dam. Is the weight around 18 grams?

It is some kind of writing.
But know that the die used for this coin is propably made for a coin with higher denomination.
So a lot of the writing is off-flan.
Something similar to this:
