About Amiri Font

Amiri is a classical Arabic typeface designed by Dr. Khaled Hosny, drawing inspiration from the beautiful Naskh script used by the historic Bulaq Press in Cairo during the early 20th century. This font represents a careful digital revival of traditional Arabic calligraphy, combining timeless elegance with modern OpenType technology.

Within this repo, Amiri is positioned as a reading-oriented Arabic font for Quranic text, Islamic literature, and formal Arabic documents. It is most useful when you want a more classical Naskh tone than a screen-first UI font.

In practice, this page is best used as a quick selection and download resource: confirm that the reading tone fits your project, then download the package or test the font in the generator.
