U+0875 "ࡵ" Arabic Letter Alef with Attached Bottom Right Kasra Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ࡵ
U+0875 "ࡵ" Arabic Letter Alef with Attached Bottom Right Kasra is a unique glyph that represents a modified form of the Arabic letter alef, combined with a diacritical mark resembling a kasra (a short vowel indicator for the sound /i/) attached to its bottom right side. This character is part of the Arabic Extended-B block, introduced in Unicode version 14.0, and is used primarily in certain historical or liturgical scripts for precise phonetic transcription, particularly in Quranic or classical Arabic contexts where specific vowel placement is critical. Its design ensures accurate representation of recitation traditions, distinguishing it from standard alef forms by the integrated kasra position.
