U+FD26 "" Arabic Ligature Sheen with Hah Final Form is a presentation form glyph found in the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, specifically designed to represent a typographic ligature of the Arabic letters Sheen (ش) and Hah (ح) in their final positional form, which appears at the end of a word when connected to a preceding character. This ligature is a calligraphic variant that combines the two consonants into a single visual unit for more fluid and aesthetically pleasing script, particularly in traditional or highly stylized Arabic text settings such as religious manuscripts. Its usage is not mandatory in standard Arabic orthography but is instead a typographic convenience that enhances continuity in cursive writing, and it is intended primarily for compatibility with older text processing systems.
