I think you must be referring to the war between Iran and Iraq, which was between 1980-88. However, while Iraq is an Arab country, Iran is a Persian country. They are both Islamic nations though. Both are majority Shi'ite Muslim.

If you are referring to one conflict that encompassed all of those years and those years exclusively, the answer is Iran and Iraq.

If you are asking which Middle Eastern countries engaged in conflicts during the period of 1980-1988, Iran and Iraq in the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), Lebanon, Israel, and Syria in the Lebanese Civil War (1976-1983), and South Yemen in the South Yemen Civil War (1986).
