Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FC8E "" Arabic Ligature Noon with Alef Maksura Final Form is a typographic presentation form used in the Arabic script for Persian and other languages, representing the joined sequence of the letters noon (ن) and alef maksura (ى) in their final position within a word. This ligature is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, which provides contextual shapes for cursive text rendering, and it specifically encodes the combined glyph that occurs when noon is followed by alef maksura at the end of a word, often used in calligraphic or high-quality print settings to maintain visual harmony. Its inclusion reflects the need for precise glyph variants in digital typography, though modern Unicode usage typically prefers the standard Arabic characters over these presentation forms.
