I doubt lard would be available in the UAE, it being a mostly islamic country. I agree with
@cmzaha the best course of action is probably to have a list of oils available to OP, so we can help
@Yasser AA brainstorming. Any edible oils are usable for soapmaking, so I'd suggest going to the supermarket and seeing what's available for a reasonable price.
To help you browse the aisles in your supermarket it might be useful to know what oils are generally used and how a recipes are often made.
Soaps can be made from just one oil, like 100% olive oil castile, but most soaps are a combination of different oils. A lot of recipes consist of basically 3 different types of oils:
1. Bubbly hard oils (e.g. coconut oil, palm kernel oil). These oils are high in short chain saturated fatty acids and make the soap more bubbly.
2. Long lasting hard oils (e.g. rendered animal fats, palm oil, butters (like cocoa and shea butter, milk butter is not a good idea)). These oils are high in long-chain fatty acids and make the soap last longer in the shower.
3. Soft oils (e.g. olive oil, high oleic suflower or canola oil, rice bran oil,..) These oils should be high in mono-unsaturated fatty acids.
If you have one of each of these groups available at a decent price that would already give a lot of options.
A lot of people on here also like to add +-5% castor oil for more bubbliness, but that's not a must and can drive up the price.
One very important thing to consider is to keep the amount of poly unsaturated fatty acids in the recipe low. These are often the oils that are considered to be very healthy, with lots of omega 3-6-9, but will go rancid when used in soap at a high amount (e.g. regular sunflower or canola oil, flaxseed oil, pomegranate seed oil,..).
Another tip is that refined oils often work better in soap than unrefined oils. I often look at the frying oil section in the supermarket to find my soaping oils, since these are always refined and low in poly-unsaturated oils (but be careful with oil mixes, these can make it more difficult to figure out how much NaOH you need for the recipe)
I hope this helps a bit already. Please let us know what kind of oils are available to you.
