The tensions may be weird but you could mix a Turkish set of bass strings with the upper four strings of an Iraqi tuning set.
This would give you E A D G C F and you could probably tune the C and F down to B and E.
I wouldn't recommend this tuning without consulting your luthier as the tensions could be very dangerous for your oud

I think that, to obtain a well balanced tension, the best option is to use guitar strings, but tuning them in D if the oud is short scale (58.5 cm) or
in C if it has more than 60 cm.

Use Aquila Arabic set "ff cc gg dd aa FF C". Use C if you have 7 string oud. Tune ff to ee, cc to bb and FF to EE. This will produce well balanced
sound across the strings.
