Arabic is called also the dhad language because it has one sound that is not available in other languages.

We can find the word daad in surat fatiha in Quran "the Path of those You have blessed—not those You are displeased with, or those who are astray".

Ḍād (ﺽ), is one of the six letters the Arabic alphabet added to the twenty-two inherited from the Phoenician alphabet (the others being ṯāʾḫāʾḏālẓāʾġayn).

Position in word: Isolated Final Medial Initial
Glyph form: ض‎ ـض‎ ـضـ‎ ض

In name and shape, it is a variant of ṣād. Its numerical value is 800 (see Abjad numerals).
