Al Qalam Rehan

Al Qalam Rehan, crafted by font designer Syed Shakir ul Qadree, is a whimsical and decorative party-style font released on January 30, 2016. Inspired by the Nastaliq script, it features soft, rounded letters with delicate pointy corners and elongated curly tails, lending it a playful charm. With 215 characters and 330 glyphs, it supports multiple languages like Urdu, Arabic, Latin, and Persian. Moreover, the font complies with the latest Unicode standards, including Basic Latin, Arabic, Latin-1 Supplement, Arabic General Punctuation, and more, increasing its practicality even more.

The font’s cursive style, contrasting thick and thin strokes, and intricate diacritics give it a unique and decorative appearance, perfect for branding, logos, invitations, gift cards, and creative projects. However, its moderate legibility on screens may pose challenges at lower pixel densities, making it more suitable for short text applications. Despite this, its wide layout and soft, rounded look add a touch of whimsy to any design. Overall, Al Qalam Rehan offers a fun and distinctive option for designers looking to add personality to their projects. However, its usability can be affected with only a single (regular) weight on hand.
