Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FC7E "" Arabic Ligature Qaf with Alef Maksura Final Form is a typographic ligature found in the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, used in specific calligraphic or traditional text contexts to represent the combined rendering of the Arabic letter Qaf (ق) followed by the letter Alef Maksura (ى) when they appear at the end of a word. This character is not typically used in modern standard digital Arabic text, as it serves as a stylistic variant for historical or decorative typesetting, where the two characters are joined into a single glyph for aesthetic or space-saving purposes. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that legacy documents and specialized fonts can correctly display this ligature without losing the intended visual and semantic representation of the word.
