Re: VMs: Are there samples of dotless Arabic in existence?



The beginning of the Quran in sich wonderful script:

nsM.a,llH.a,lr,hmN.a,lr,hnM=
a,lxmd.llH.r,N.a,lglmnN=
a,lr,hmN.a,lr,hnM=
a,nAK.ngnd.w,a,nAK.nsngnN=
a,Gd,na,a,lthr,adh.a,lmsngnM=
thr,adh.a,ld,nN.aNgmN.GlnXM.gNm.a,lmgthw,N.aglnGM.w.LA,a,ltha,lnM=

Here I have used vocables:
b,t,n,y -> n in the middle position, N in the end position
r,z -> r
d,dz -> d
g, h -> g
kh, j -> h
and so on without dot distinguish ,
comma means a small space inside the word; point means the space between words
specific arabic S,Z -> th, T,D -> dh


We can suppose that somebody without awareness of arabic had copied the arabic book,
written in a specific script.

Look at the bismillah in Kufic: no dots, and the
b of "bism" is exactly like the y of "rahiim"
