U+FB9F "ﮟ" Arabic Letter Noon Ghunna Final Form Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+FB9F "ﮟ" Arabic Letter Noon Ghunna Final Form is a presentation form of the Arabic letter noon, specifically designed to represent the nasalized "n" sound (ghunna) when it appears in the final position of a word. It is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, which exists primarily for compatibility with older text encoding standards rather than for modern plain text use, as contemporary Arabic fonts can typically produce this shape automatically through contextual shaping rules. This character is most commonly encountered in liturgical or pedagogical contexts, particularly in Quranic recitation where precise notation of nasalization is important, and it appears in scripts like Nastaliq and Naskh to visually indicate the ghunna feature of the noon sakinah or tanween.
