U+FDF6 "" Arabic Ligature Rasoul Isolated Form is a typographic ligature used in Arabic script calligraphy to represent the word "Rasoul" (رسول), meaning "messenger" in Arabic, which often refers to the Prophet Muhammad in religious texts. This character combines the letters Rā, Sīn, Wāw, and Lām into a single, compact glyph for elegant writing or formatting. It is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-A block, which is designed primarily for compatibility with older software and complex text rendering. While the ligature is rarely needed in modern digital Arabic text, it remains significant for reproducing classical manuscripts or decorative religious phrases.
