U+FCAE "" Arabic Ligature Seen with Hah Initial Form Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FCAE "" Arabic Ligature Seen with Hah Initial Form is a typographic ligature found in the Arabic script presentation forms block, specifically representing the initial form of the letters Seen (ـﺳ) and Hah (ـﺤ) combined into a single glyph. This ligature is part of a set of encoded presentation forms designed for compatibility with older text rendering systems, and it corresponds to the Arabic letter sequence "سح" when those characters appear in their initial joining position within a word. While modern Unicode rendering often handles such ligatures automatically through font shaping, this character remains available for legacy use, preserving the visual appearance of traditional calligraphic styles where the two consonants merge gracefully.
