U+FD23 "ﴣ" Arabic Ligature Dad with Alef Maksura Final Form is a specialized typographic glyph used in Arabic script calligraphy and traditional text rendering, representing the ligature of the letter Dad (ض) followed by the letter Alef Maksura (ى) in its final or word-ending form. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which includes a variety of cursive ligatures designed to replicate the ornate, connected styles of historical and decorative Arabic writing. It is primarily intended for use in legacy systems and specific typesetting contexts where precise visual representation of these combined letters is required, rather than for modern plain text encoding where separate characters are typically used.
