Maybe this one in line 25 of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is not firm enough, but I think it might be one of the “corrections”, or “e with accents”.

   

In this case, it seems to me that the writer first wrote qoeeedy Sheeal and then added two strokes above, to make it qoesedy Sheeerl.

This “a” does seem to be somehow split into two parts, but this is not the only example where “a” is written in this way. In line 28 of the same page, we could see qotain, whose “a” is also written in this way.

What strikes me here is the rare combination “rl”.

  1. There is only one occurrence of the combination “erl”.
  2. In all other cases of combination “rl”, the letter “r” and “l” are far from each other, making two letters clearly recognizable.
