Description

Google Fonts strips all "non-essential" characters from Arabic fonts. However, these characters are in fact often needed. E.g. for properly writing Quranic verses, the characters U+06D6-06E8 are required, yet they're almost all removed by Google Fonts.

Thus, if they can be added, or a "full" version of each font be provided.
