Omar Abdel-Wahab

This could be very strange but it's tested:
When styling Arabic text, setting the text-transform to "capitalize" using the selector "first-letter" will break the first letter and draw it separated from the rest of the word which doesn't happen to the same text using text-transform without the selector.
Try it if you're interested and let me know what you think.
I personally believe it's a wrong application of the capital letters in Arabic, where the separate letter is considered a capital one, I recall the early days of Office applications doing this.
