Comments like these always make me wonder what motivated them.

The vast majority of characters in the Arabic Presentation Forms-A and -B blocks should not be used. They exist for compatibility with older platforms that did not implement proper Arabic shaping and directionality. Instead, use normal Arabic letters from the regular Arabic, Arabic Supplement, Extended-A, or Extended-B blocks.
