U+FE8F "ﺏ" Arabic Letter Beh Isolated Form Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+FE8F "ﺏ" Arabic Letter Beh Isolated Form is a presentation form of the Arabic letter Beh, specifically designed to appear in its standalone, unattached shape as it would at the beginning of a word or in isolation, distinct from its initial, medial, or final contextual variants. This character corresponds to the base letter U+0628 "ب" but is encoded separately in the Unicode standard to facilitate precise typographic rendering in legacy systems or for specific layout requirements, though modern text processing typically prefers the general Arabic letter and relies on shaping engines to automatically produce the isolated form.
