The only thing you could do on your phone (depending on the model) is assign the number a custom [silent] ringtone so the nuisance calls don't actually ring and disturb you, but the phone will still show the missed calls and receive text messages etc.

To permanently block a number you will have to speak with Etisalat as the call block has to be implemented at the network level. In most western countries the call block request has to be supported by a harrasment report filed with the local police, but I doubt they're that organised here.
