U+FD05 "" Arabic Ligature Sad with Alef Maksura Isolated Form is a presentation form character used in Arabic script calligraphy and typography, representing the ligature of the Arabic letter Sad (ص) and the letter Alef Maksura (ى) combined into a single glyph. It falls within the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which contains specialized ligatures designed for precise visual rendering in traditional text layout, rather than for standard modern writing. This particular isolated form appears on its own without connecting to other letters, and it is typically employed in certain Qur’anic texts or decorative inscriptions where such a compact, stylized representation is preferred for aesthetic or space-saving reasons.
