In this example

\definefont[Shehkl][name:Scheherazade*arabic at 15pt] % or file:amiri-regular.ttf*... file:alq.ttf

\definestartstop[Arab][commands=\setups{Arabic}]
\def\Arab{\doArab}
\def\Arab[#1]{
\startArab 
\noindentation
            \setupalign[r2l]\Shehkl#1
\stopArab
}

\starttext

wie Erlösung\Arab[فوز] -> why there is one extra space between arabic and german?

\stoptext

there is an extra space between arabic and german. Indeed normally one should write

Erlösung \Arab[فوز]

but this gives two extra spaces. How to eliminate this extra space character?

Hmmm, seems the same problem as in the "break before comma" question. – egreg Nov 7 '12 at 17:13
Yes, my comment was just an additional question, and the comma-question is solved by \hbox , but the extra space remains unsolved. – Mustafa Nov 7 '12 at 17:17
