Unicode Version 17.0

𞸜

U+1EE1C "𞸜" Arabic Mathematical Dotless Beh is a specialized glyph used in the context of Arabic mathematical notation, specifically within the "Arabic Mathematical Alphabetic Symbols" block. It represents a variant of the Arabic letter Beh but is distinguished by the absence of its characteristic dot, a modification designed to denote a different semantic or symbolic value in algebraic or scientific texts. This character is part of a larger set created to support typesetting of modern Arabic mathematics, allowing scholars to encode the unique letterforms and diacritical adjustments required for precision in technical writing. By including dotless forms like this one, the standard enables a clear distinction between phonetically similar letters that would otherwise be ambiguous in mathematical expressions.
