Musadda khulfiya = مسددة خلفية
Greetings....taHaiyat Tayyiba wa b3ad...
The Unifying Military Dictionary of the Arab League gives:
Musadda khulfiya = مسددة خلفية
Alternate term (but used less frequently in military manuals):
sh3iirat khulfiya = شعيرة خلفية
Hope this helps.
Khair, in sha' Allah.

الفرضة
While the frontsight is called شُعيرة [shu'ayrah], the backsight is called فرضة [fardhah]. الفرضة is the gap or opening that one has to align with the frontsight to obtain a straight aim to the target.
