U+FEE9 "ﻩ" Arabic Letter Heh Isolated Form Unicode Character

U+FEE9 "ﻩ" Arabic Letter Heh Isolated Form is a presentation form of the Arabic letter "heh" (ه), specifically designed to appear in its isolated graphical shape when rendered in text, typically at the end of a word or when standing alone. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, which provides context-sensitive glyph variants for use with certain legacy or complex text systems, though modern Unicode processing often relies on shaping engines that automatically generate the appropriate form from the standard Arabic letter U+0647. Its visual appearance resembles a small, rounded loop or teardrop shape with a connected tail, distinct from the initial, medial, and final forms of the same letter.
