Unicode Version 17.0

U+FDCC "﷌" Arabic Ligature Sallallahu Alayhi Wa-Alaa Aalihee Wa-Sallam is a typographic ligature in the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, specifically intended to represent the Islamic honorific phrase "Sallallahu Alayhi Wa-Alaa Aalihee Wa-Sallam," which translates to "May God bless him and grant him peace, and upon his family." This character is part of a series of encoded honorifics designed to facilitate rendering sacred textual references in digital environments, particularly for religious and scholarly documents. It is primarily used in Arabic script contexts to provide a single, compact glyph that maintains the traditional calligraphic form of the blessing, ensuring consistency and reverence in written expressions. The ligature is not commonly used in modern standard text but remains relevant for historical and liturgical applications, where precise typographic representation of Islamic piety is required.
