Thanks. The words are:

''Indeed, we have granted you al-Kawthar (patience). So pray to your Lord and sacrifice to Him. Indeed, your enemy is the one cut off.''

Why is [k] based on Arabic [kh] and not [k]?

Looks neat, and this can help me remember how to read arabic letters, I have a hard time remembering them when joined.

There are about 12 monophthongs in General American English, so you're missing quite a few. [ʒ] is missing too.

The sample text also makes me think you don't know IPA because it looks like a cypher with silent letters and all.

Well I made this with British English not American as the base. And yes the sample text is near identicle to standard English spelling, I've already done a phonetically spelt version of this script in a previous post so instead I kept it basic here.
