Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Standard do support Arabic in many ways such as filling up forms, adding comments, and the like. Acrobat however will fail mostly in editing a PDF with Arabic content, for instance if you want to add or edit text to non-form text frames.

‎Good day,

‎I’m a frequent user of the Adobe DC and I use it on all of my PDF, my problem that it’s not showing the Arabic fonts on editing to a PDF file or Singing it, like if I want to add the word “سلام” it will show it like “س ل ا م” separating each character. I tried the support for couple of years and was updating my versions as available, but still not working.

‎Waiting for your support & feedback.

‎Thanks,

‎Nabeel

Nabeel, I believe you're referring to the "Fill & Sign", if so then this feature doesn't support Arabic till now. Here is a post about the progress of this feature on the "Bug report" portal.

Although Acrobat does support Arabic in some areas, yet few features don't support Arabic at all, unfortunately, at least for the time being as Acrobat Team does say they're considering fixing it. I left you a link on your other post : ) which you can vote for the Acrobat team to fix areas in Acrobat that doesn't support Arabic well yet.
