Many articles and books repeate the conclusions of western scholars of the nineteenth century, based on a handful of inscriptions, about a Arab Nabataean transformation to Arabic script. Few, like Mādūn, challenged this notion with serious and interesting analysis and reasoning. He speculated with illustrative details about a possible transformation of older Arabic Musnad shapes to modern ones, instead. Today there are many books and articles, disagreeing with the Aramaic Nabataean origin theory without offering a solid alternative theory.

For a long time, theories about early Arabic script (al-Jazm) between Musnad roots and Aramaic scripts were differentiated and differed by Nabataean Arabs. There may have been many Nabataean Aramaic forms included in Jazm, but it is difficult to claim for sure that Jazm was a line of Aramaic based on some of the symbols very similar to the Arabic alphabet, especially since Nabataean Aramaic and Musnad have the roots of a common form of the Sinaitic alphabet. . What we take for researchers is their neglect of the Musnad letters in the Zabur script in their theories.
