Are the names written using the abjad alphabet written correctly?

[edit]

Arabic and Persian are written and read right to left. I'm under the impression that the name "Muhammed Ali Khan" should look like:

محمد ءلي خان

Instead, the letters of the names are in the correct order, but the order of the names themselves are incorrect, so currently they seem to appear like this:

خان ءلي محمد

The latter reads like "Khan Ali Mohammed". For the fullest of disclosure, I'm trying to use random and common parts of names, I don't know if Mohammed Ali Khan is a "realistic" or "correct" name in and of itself. But if Mohammed Ali were the first names of someone, and Khan were their last name, I believe that is what it would look like for the purpose of the example. I hope this is sufficient and clear.

Thanks for anyones help, whoever sees this. 2605:A601:AD70:6200:8440:8798:608B:17DB (talk) 01:08, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for noticing. The names were entered correctly, but due to a technical problem, they were being displayed that way in your browser. I used the template {{lang}} now, I guess that would fix your problem. --Z 08:13, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
