Unicode Version 17.0

U+FD5F "ﵟ" Arabic Ligature Seen with Meem with Hah Final Form is a typographic ligature used in the Arabic script, specifically representing a connected form of the letters Seen (س), Meem (م), and Hah (ح) in their final position within a word. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which contains precomposed ligatures and contextual variants designed to support complex typographic layouts and calligraphic traditions in written Arabic. It is typically employed in certain styles of text rendering or in historical or artistic contexts where a single glyph is preferred over separate character sequences, though it is not commonly used in modern digital communication due to the availability of standard shaping mechanisms through Unicode’s Arabic script processor.
