I believe (correct me if I'm wrong!) that xetex uses the HarfBuzz engine. There was a bug in this engine that prevented a new Nastaliq font from SIL from working properly. A fix for this bug has just been accepted (I believe it's this one: https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/pull/475). It's not clear to me whether this can get into xetex before the next TeXLive release, given the schedule here:
