U+06ED "ۭ" Arabic Small Low Meem Unicode Character

U+06ED "ۭ" Arabic Small Low Meem is a diacritical mark used in Arabic script, specifically a small meem written in a lowered position relative to the base character. It functions as a phonetic sign, primarily in Quranic orthography or scholarly texts, to indicate a specific nasalization or a subtle pronunciation nuance that differs from the standard meem letter. This character is not used in ordinary Arabic writing but appears in specialized contexts such as Tajweed rules for Quranic recitation, where it helps denote a slight assimilation or prolongation of the nasal sound.
