Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+0871 "" Arabic Letter Alef with Attached Top Right Fatha is a relatively recent addition to the Unicode Standard, introduced as part of the extended Arabic block to support historical or specialized orthographic needs. This character represents the Arabic letter alef combined with a fatha diacritic specifically attached to its top right corner, a notation used in certain Quranic or pedagogical texts to indicate a precise phonetic nuance or to ensure correct pronunciation without ambiguity. Its inclusion aids in the accurate digital representation of Classical Arabic and other languages using Arabic script where such detailed vowel markings are required, bridging a gap for scholars and linguists working with these nuanced writing systems.
