Thanks for your comment!

Could you please read comment #44 in this bug report:

It would be great if you could test the version of the fonts-nafees
package in my PPA and let us know if it makes Nafees Nastaleeq be used
when you for instance browse an Urdu web page.

As far as I know, Jameel Noori Nastaleeq is not packaged for Ubuntu, so
it's too late to include it in Ubuntu 14.04.

Title:
  [FFe] Urdu with better support:  Default Fonts

Status in Fontconfig - Font Configuration Library:
  Confirmed
Status in “fonts-nafees” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “fonts-nafees” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  To the release team:
  This FFe is about adding the font NafeesNastaleeq.ttf to the package. Before 
seeking sponsorship, the Urdu users need to confirm that the proposed patch 
actually improves the rendering as intended.
  The change affects Urdu users only, so no regression risk for other users.
  ----------------------------------

  Default fonts in Ubuntu show ugly Urdu text.

  It's better that language-selector sets "Nafees Regular" (Nafees Web
  in fonts-nafees package) as default font for all font families
  (SansSerif, Serif...except mono) used in Ubuntu.

  I would like to ask, if language-selector is able to set specific
  keyboard layout for Urdu for 1st time?

  Please Shabbir:
  Could you write here the best setting for Urdu Fonts (Using "Tweak Tool": 
Scale Factor, Hinting, Anitaliasing, Size)?
