Perso-Arabic script

The Perso-Arabic script is an Abjad writing system used to write several languages, including Persian, Urdu, and Pashto. It is a modified version of the Arabic alphabet, with additional letters to represent sounds unique to these languages. The script is written from right to left and is characterized by its cursive style, with letters connected to each other. The Perso-Arabic script has a rich history, dating back to the Islamic Golden Age, and has been influenced by various Calligraphy styles, including Nastaliq and Thuluth. It is still widely used today in many countries, including Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.
