The way Caliber works to sort the names makes that, Yes it is necessary to pay attention to the prefixes and to manage them, but the management of suffix is superfluous (since they will all be grouped in the same place).
There is no need to implement the author surname suffixes functionality since the tweak mentioned by theducks already has that functionality. Editing the list of author_name_suffixes to use the suffixes to include the list of suffixes in Persian should take care of the issue going forward.
