U+0608 "؈" Arabic Ray is a punctuation mark used in Arabic script, primarily within Quranic text and certain classical manuscripts to indicate a specific type of pause or break, often serving a function similar to a comma or a breath mark in recitation. It is one of the several diacritic-like symbols in the Arabic block, distinct from letters or numerals, and its usage is specialized rather than common in modern typed Arabic.
