Diacritic rendering incorrectly

I have been working with Arabic in my application and using QuranSaleem font, it shows correctly in web and IOS applications like this

correct word

but it is being rendered incorrectly like this

wrong word

I have changed fonts but to no avail, there is always some problem with rendering in android. what is the solution to this problem?

     Typefaces.SetFontQuranSaleem(holder.VerseArTextView);

and here is the code for this method

     class Typefaces
 {
    Context context;
    static Typeface quranFontSaleem;
    public Typefaces(Context context)
    {
        this.context = context;
        quranFontSaleem = Typeface.CreateFromAsset(context.Assets, "Fonts/QuranFontSaleem.ttf");

    }
    public static void SetFontQuranSaleem(TextView textview)
    {
        textview.SetTypeface(quranFontSaleem, TypefaceStyle.Normal);
    }
 }

I finally was able to find the culprit it was the text it self which was rendering incorrectly in the android app, I changed the text and it is now rendering fine.

I replaced "شَیْـًٔـا" with "شَيْئًا" and it was rendering fine.
