TitusNemeth has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/alreq: == Arabic writing styles == Section [2.7.2. Different writing styles](https://w3c.github.io/alreq/#h_different_writing_styles) has some errors in it. Ibn Muqla lived hundreds of years before the styles Ruqʻa, Taʻlīq and Diwani even arose, so couldn't have described them. I would suggest generally avoiding somewhat mystical figures and sources such as Muqla, of whom we have very little first-hand evidence. I guess the text meant to refer to the Six Pens, canonised later and comprising different styles.
