U+FDE7 "﷧" Arabic Presentation Forms-A is a typographic ligature that represents the phrase "Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam" (ﷺ), an honorific used in Islamic texts after the name of the Prophet Muhammad. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which is designed to encode precomposed ligatures and contextual forms for compatibility with older text processing systems, though its use is largely historical and not recommended for modern encoding. The ligature itself combines multiple Arabic letters and diacritical marks into a single glyph, streamlining the representation of this common religious expression in digital environments.
