Tajawal — Free Arabic Google Font
Tajawal is a low-contrast geometric sans from Boutros™ that keeps one foot in traditional Arabic calligraphy while reading as thoroughly modern. Its fluid, evenly-weighted letterforms make it equally at home in a website's body text or paired with Latin typefaces in print.
About Tajawal
Tajawal comes from Boutros™ and leans slightly warmer than most geometric Arabic sans fonts, with rounder terminals that read less "corporate" than Cairo at display sizes — a reasonable pick when a brand wants approachable rather than strictly neutral.
Designers: Boutros Fonts, Mourad Boutros, Soulaf Khalifeh
Best used for
- Body text on websites
- Print and editorial layouts
- Pairing with Latin typefaces
