Hmm, I wonder what font you miss from F7?
I am not aware of any changes for Arabic since then, except that the fonts
were moved to separate packages are Rahul explained.

Perhaps you could try fonts-arabic from f7 again and see if that makes a difference:
since the paths to the fonts changed and might potentially have affected
the priorities.

Should we make kacst-fonts optional for Arabic?
