Then post your question on the Microsoft Mac forums as it's their software you're having trouble with.

MS Word for Mac has never supported persian/arabic/urdu (even after 14 years now). So you have to use another app. Mellel is best, but TextEdit, Pages 5 (not Pages 09), Nisus Writer, Open/LibreOffice should all work OK.

Try LibreOffice. It is a free clone of MS Office.

To find it, google "LibreOffice" for yourself.

You will have to ask the people who make it. Nothing to do with Apple.

I don't think anyone is going to understand what you mean by "keep my data safe forever". Nothing is "forever," and "safe" can have a lot of different meanings.
