U+FC27 "ﰧ" Arabic Ligature Tah with Meem Isolated Form Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ﰧ
U+FC27 "ﰧ" Arabic Ligature Tah with Meem Isolated Form is a typographic ligature found in the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, designed to render the specific combination of the Arabic letters Tah (ط) and Meem (م) as a single connected glyph when they appear together in the isolated form, meaning the shape of the ligature is intended for stand‑alone use rather than joining with adjacent characters in a word. This character was created to maintain calligraphic aesthetics in certain typesetting contexts, particularly for traditional or decorative fonts, and it represents a single codepoint for the sequence of these two consonants.
