Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FD8D "" Arabic Ligature Meem with Jeem with Meem Initial Form is a special presentation form that encodes a typographic ligature of three Arabic letters, Meem, Jeem, and Meem, specifically designed for use in calligraphic or highly stylized texts where these characters are connected in their initial forms. This character belongs to the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, which contains precomposed ligatures that are rarely needed in modern digital text, as standard Unicode encoding allows the same sequence to be represented by the individual base letters using proper shaping engines. Its primary purpose is to facilitate precise reproduction of historical or decorative Arabic scripts where such ligatures were traditionally used, ensuring that the exact visual appearance is preserved in digital formats.
