Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FC2C "" Arabic Ligature Ghain with Meem Isolated Form is a typographic ligature within the Arabic script block, combining the letters ghain (غ) and meem (م) into a single, cursive glyph for use in isolation. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-A range, which was designed to represent historical or stylistic typographic variants rather than being a standard rendering of the letters in modern text. It is primarily utilized in certain calligraphic or display contexts, particularly in religious or decorative settings where a smooth, connected visual form of the two consonants is desired. Because it is a precomposed ligature, its use is generally discouraged in plain digital text in favor of standard Unicode encoding and font shaping, which can automatically produce similar connections.
