Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FD14 "" Arabic Ligature Ain with Yeh Final Form is a typographic ligature used in the Arabic script, specifically representing the combined sequence of the letter 'Ain' (ع) followed by the letter 'Yeh' (ي) in their final positional form at the end of a word. This character belongs to the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which was designed to encode precomposed visual variants that facilitate the reproduction of traditional Arabic calligraphy and typesetting. It appears as a single connected glyph rather than as two separate characters, addressing historical rendering needs where such ligatures were common in printed texts, though modern digital fonts typically handle this connection through contextual shaping without requiring a dedicated code point.
