ﴴ

U+FD34 "ﴴ" Arabic Ligature Seen with Jeem Medial Form is a typographic ligature used in certain styles of Arabic calligraphy and text encoding to represent the medial form of the letters seen (س) and jeem (ج) combined as a single glyph. This character falls within the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which contains specialized ligatures and contextual forms that are rarely needed in modern digital communication but may appear in historical or decorative texts. When rendered, it displays the two letters seamlessly joined in their medial positions, reflecting traditional cursive handwriting conventions for seamless connectivity within a word. As a presentation form, it is not intended for general linguistic use and relies on appropriate font support for correct visual display.
