Corrected entry: The story unfolds at a time when the Persian Empire is still strong. At that time, Persia was not yet subjugated by the Arabs who later on adulterated their Persian language with the Arabic script and the Islam religion. Why then, can the Arabic language be heard spoken by the background actors? Why then, is the decree signed by the newly enthroned King (the eldest son)in the Arabic script, which was not yet invented at that time?

Corrected entry: The ostrich-jockeys have Western numerals written on the square cloth stitched to their backs (1,2,3,4,5).
Correction: No, they have Arabic numerals written on their backs. Western culture adopted the Arabic numerals over Roman numerals. As the movie is in the Middle East, the numerals shown are correct.

Corrected entry: In the Scene where Dastan and Tamina are underground and the landslide begins, Tamina seeks refuge by climbing up the stairway, while Dastan is swept down and has to superjump over the Abyss to the door on other side. How then did Tamina manage to cross the Abyss and help Dastan defeat the Hassasin on the other side?

Correction: For the same reason that the primary cast members are all speaking modern-day colloquial English, which is not only inappropriate for the time period, but also for the geographical region. Historically set movies routinely use present-day languages and writing for simplicity. This is a standard movie convention and is not considered a mistake.
