Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FD95 "" Arabic Ligature Noon with Hah with Meem Initial Form is a typographic ligature used in the Arabic script, specifically designed to combine the letters Noon (ن), Hah (ح), and Meem (م) into a single condensed glyph at the initial position of a word. This character falls within the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which historically provided precomposed ligatures for better compatibility with older font rendering systems and print traditions. It represents a visual simplification where the distinct shapes of the three letters are merged, streamlining cursive writing and preserving the text's natural flow, though its use has largely been supplanted by modern Unicode shaping engines that automatically form such ligatures based on context.
