U+FBB1 "ﮱ" Arabic Letter Yeh Barree with Hamza Above Final Form Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+FBB1 "ﮱ" Arabic Letter Yeh Barree with Hamza Above Final Form is a presentation form character used in the Arabic script, specifically representing a variant of the letter "yeh" (similar to a final Yāʼ) that carries a hamza diacritic placed above it, but it takes a distinct flattened or "barree" shape at the end of a word. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block in Unicode, which contains contextual forms for cursive scripts, and it is primarily employed for precise typographic rendering in historical or orthographic contexts where the standard final yeh with hamza does not suffice. Its use ensures correct visual representation in complex text layouts, particularly in documents or fonts that require strict adherence to traditional calligraphic styles.
