Author's note

UKIJ Diwani Tom by the Uyghur Computer Science Association is a free Diwani calligraphic font with a sweeping, handwritten rhythm and a distinctly Arabic court style. The letters lean on long, tapering strokes and broad curves that loop back into one another, giving the font a fluid, ceremonial feel rather than a strict or geometric one.

That makes it a natural fit for cultural posters, book covers, event invitations, title cards, and short branding lines where the movement of the lettering does much of the work. As a free font, it suits brief display settings, monograms, and headline words that can let those extended swashes and soft joins stay visible.
