U+FD0F "ﴏ" Arabic Ligature Sad with Reh Isolated Form Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+FD0F "ﴏ" Arabic Ligature Sad with Reh Isolated Form is a typographic ligature used in the Arabic script, representing the combination of the letters Sad (ص) and Reh (ر) joined together in their isolated form. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which contains precomposed ligatures and contextual forms primarily for compatibility with older text rendering systems. It does not represent a distinct phoneme or word but rather a stylistic or calligraphic convenience found in certain printed contexts, such as religious texts or decorative writing. Although modern Unicode usage typically prefers to encode the individual letters separately with shaping managed by fonts, U+FD0F remains valid for preserving original digital text or for specific display needs where the ligature is required as a single entity.
