U+FEBE "ﺾ" Arabic Letter Dad Final Form Unicode Character

U+FEBE "ﺾ" Arabic Letter Dad Final Form is a typographic variant of the Arabic letter "ḍād" (ض) specifically designed to appear at the end of a word, where it takes on a distinctive curved and closed shape that connects to preceding letters but not to following ones, as per Arabic script rules. This character represents the emphatic "d" sound and is historically notable as the "letter of the ضad," a phoneme unique to Arabic that gives the language its traditional name "لغة الضاد" (lughat al-ḍād, or the language of the ḍād). In Unicode, it falls under the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, used primarily for compatibility with older text rendering systems, while modern standard text typically relies on the base character ض along with a shaping engine to automatically produce this final form.
