My! What a lovely collection of specimens, at least to these eyes. Some
have much-more-easily-distinguished letterform details than several
sperimens I've seem, which seem cramped and hard to distinguish.

Btw, some time back, I searched the Web for Arabic calligraphy, and was
almost astonished at the great beauty and variety of what I found.
