This can't be the problem, because even if I don't set a font on my
config, the font which selected automatically by emacs is also rendered
disjointed. But to make sure this isn't the case, I removed two
compatible fonts that are automatically selected (namely, Vazir and
Noto, both of which have great Persian support). The default font is now
DejaVu
Mono, which is again rendered disjointed.
