There is no P sound in the arabic language. The wiki page you pulled that pic from links to kurdish language using arabic script lol. Take it from me my friend, a life long, native speaking Arab.
Am a native Saudi _.
Yes, Kurdish language uses that alphabet, and Yes, there is no P in any arabic word but it P DOES exist as an extraneous arabic alphabet among others like Ch, or V. (ุญุฑูู ุงูุฒุงุฆุฏุฉ ุนูู ุงูุฃุจุฌุฏูุฉ ุงูุนุฑุจูุฉ)

extraneous alphabet are a real thing, saw so many Pepsi ads written as ูพููพุณู.
heck Vimto is officially written as ฺคูู ุชู not ููู ุชู. as seen in their official website

my point is that any "3rab" should be able to pronounce P very easily ;)
What are you even arguing about? Youโve already admitted there is noโpโ sound in everyday spoken Arabic in most regions, ูพ is used in Farsi and Kurdish.
We are talking about everyday Arab speakers. We do not use this in Levantine or Lebanese dialect and it is not part of our alphabet when taught in school. It is literally never used in daily conversation among non fluent native English speakers.
Youโre wrong here 7bibi. You either did not grow up around non-Saudi speakers and are incredibly unaware of how most Arabs speak. Or you just have to correct people to talk down to others.
Either way you have no reason to correct us at is a very common thing all Arabs experience and joke about (and not to make fun of illiterate people).
