Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Browser Default

U+FDEE "" Arabic Presentation Forms-A is a single character that represents a typographic ligature for the Arabic phrase "Sallallahou Alayhe Wasallam," which translates to "peace be upon him" and is commonly used after the name of the Prophet Muhammad in Islamic texts. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which was designed to support the specific ligature and contextual forms required for Arabic calligraphy and typesetting. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for the efficient representation of this common religious honorific as a single glyph, rather than as a sequence of separate Arabic letters, thereby preserving the traditional calligraphic appearance in digital documents.
