The problem is only with Arabic, the text with tashkil is not the ideal thing
to render the Qur'an text and this is why I included a <searchtext> tag,
becuase I'm planning to use something different for the <qurantext> tag, it
may be another font that is different than anything else (take these chars as
a sample '73jk at dsds%a&%^' , these random chars maybe rendered by the font
as "Bismella Al-Rahman Al-Raheem" in 'Rasm Othmani', and it will be very hard
to use it for anything but viewing purposes
