U+064E "َ" Arabic Fatha is a diacritical mark used in the Arabic script to indicate the vowel sound /a/, similar to the short 'a' in English. It appears as a small diagonal stroke above the consonant it modifies, and is an integral part of the Arabic writing system for representing vocalization, particularly in the Quran, children's books, and language learning materials where full orthographic clarity is required.
