Source: Browser Default
U+FC9E "ﲞ" Arabic Ligature Beh with Khah Initial Form is a typographic ligature found in the Arabic script presentation forms block, specifically representing the combination of the Arabic letters Beh (ب) and Khah (خ) in their initial positional form for use at the beginning of a word. This ligature is primarily utilized in historical or ornate calligraphic contexts where the two characters are conjoined into a single glyph to achieve a more compact or aesthetically flowing appearance, though it is not typically required for modern standard digital text. It is encoded for compatibility with older character sets and text rendering systems, allowing the preservation of traditional calligraphic styles in plain text.
