U+089C "࢜" Arabic Madda Waajib Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+089C "࢜" Arabic Madda Waajib is a diacritic mark used in Arabic script to indicate a required or obligatory prolongation of a vowel sound, specifically a madda that must be lengthened as a rule of recitation, often in Quranic or religious contexts. It appears as a small zigzag or tilde-like sign positioned above a letter, distinct from the more common madda sign, and its inclusion in Unicode supports precise textual representation for scholars and linguists working with classical Arabic texts.
