Unicode Version 17.0
U+FB55 "ﭕ" Arabic Letter Beeh Medial Form is a presentation form variant of the Arabic letter “Beh” (ب), specifically designed for the medial position within a word when written in certain calligraphic styles or traditional Arabic script contexts. This character belongs to the Unicode block “Arabic Presentation Forms-A,” which includes ligatures and positional forms that support the complex shaping rules of Arabic typography. U+FB55 depicts the letter “Beh” with a connecting stroke on both its right and left sides, allowing it to seamlessly link with adjacent characters in the middle of a word. It is primarily used in legacy text rendering or specialized typographic systems to ensure proper visual alignment, though modern Arabic fonts typically generate this form automatically through shape processing without needing the encoded character.
