U+FC5A "" Arabic Ligature Yeh with Yeh Isolated Form is a typographic ligature that represents a specific connected graphical form of two Arabic letter Yeh characters combined into a single glyph, used in the isolated position within a word. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which includes ligatures designed for compatibility with legacy text rendering and calligraphic styles, rather than for standard modern text encoding. It serves to preserve traditional handwritten or typeset forms where two Yeh letters appear together without a space or other intervening character, such as in certain proper names or religious terms. While not commonly used in everyday digital text, it aids in faithful representation of historical or decorative Arabic writing systems.
