That works here with Version: 6.4.5.0.0+ (x64)

The characters, which you mention below have the code points U+0633 and U+0635.
They are not contained in the Liberation fonts. It might be, that character
replacement does not work on your system. You should try to set a font in the
fields in section "Formula Fonts", that contains this subset, e.g one of the
"Noto" fonts..

Copy and paste works without problems here.

Another way I can insert these characters: I write U+0633, mark it and then
click on "Toggle Unicode Notation". (You need to add that command to a toolbar
in Math.)

Copy and paste from there has no problems.

So I cannot reproduce your problem.

Have you tried to use a new user profile?
Have you tried, whether the problem is still there, if you use an Arabic User
Interface?
