Arabic font problem

Hello arch community, one of the best communities btw, so straight to the point, the arabic font on arch linux is just so awful and unclear, so I want to set a specific arabic font for the whole system including softwares that rely on the system font config

I cannot however help you w/ what font looks not "awful and unclear" in arabic, 1st because all of arabic looks unclear to me and 2nd becase its also unclear what "awful and unclear" actually means here.
If the links don't help you out, please link a screenshot to illustrate the situation.
