U+FBF7 "ﯷ" Arabic Ligature Yeh with Hamza Above with E Final Form Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+FBF7 "ﯷ" Arabic Ligature Yeh with Hamza Above with E Final Form is a typographic presentation form used in the Arabic script to represent a specific ligature, combining the letters "yeh with hamza above" and a final form "e" (often associated with the vowel "eh" or "e" sound in languages like Urdu or Sindhi). This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, which was designed to support complex text layout and calligraphic rendering where multiple characters are joined into a single glyph. It is primarily employed in specialized digital typography, such as in religious or poetic texts, where precise orthographic conventions require the two graphemes to appear as one unified shape at the end of a word.
