U+08FB "ࣻ" Arabic Double Right Arrowhead Above is a combining diacritical mark used in the Arabic script, specifically designed for certain extended Arabic or Quranic orthographies. It appears as two small right-pointing arrowheads placed above a base Arabic letter, functioning as a phonetic or vowel sign to indicate a specific pronunciation or articulatory feature, such as a long vowel or a glide. This character is part of the Arabic Extended-A block, which includes additional marks for transcription of languages like African Arabic dialects or for historical and religious textual accuracy.
