Unicode Version 17.0
ﯭ
U+FBED "ﯭ" Arabic Ligature Yeh with Hamza Above with Ae Final Form is a special presentation form used in the Arabic script to represent a specific typographic ligature that combines the letter "Yeh with Hamza Above" and the letter "Ae" in their final position within a word. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, designed for compatibility with legacy text rendering and to ensure correct visual shaping when the two characters appear as a connected unit at the end of a word. It is primarily used in languages such as Urdu, where the ligature is a standard typographic feature, and its inclusion in Unicode allows for accurate display and interchange of text that requires this particular final form.
