Wash and dice the cucumbers and tomatoes into small, evenly sized pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and finely dice the red onion, and add it to the bowl with the cucumbers and tomatoes.
Chop the fresh parsley and mint leaves and add them to the salad mixture.
Peel and segment the orange, then chop the segments into bite-sized pieces. Add the orange to the salad bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together until evenly coated.
Allow the salad to sit for 5-10 minutes to let the flavors meld, then serve chilled or at room temperature.
