Arabic Character U+067E (PEH) Appears Incorrectly Shaped #110

It appears that the shape of U+0752 is being incorrectly used for U+067E. In Arabic script, these characters have distinct shapes, and their misuse can lead to rendering issues. To address this problem, it's important to ensure that U+067E (PEH) is displayed with its correct form, and U+0752 (SYRIAC ESASA) is not used as a substitute.

I have issued it in daltonmaag repo as well. But it seems the project is not updated there! https://github.com/daltonmaag/ubuntu/issues/75#issue-1979842779

The Ubuntu fonts repository do not support Arabic yet, so unfortunately I’m unable to address this issue in the fonts here.

I’ll leave this open so that the folks at Canonical can see it and incorporate it into their future plans for updating the Arabic version.
