Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FED0 "" Arabic Letter Ghain Medial Form is a presentation form of the Arabic letter ghain (ع) that is used specifically when the letter appears in the middle of a word and connects to both a preceding and following character. This glyph is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, which contains contextual variants of Arabic letters for improved typographic rendering, and it represents the medial positional shape of the letter, characterized by a single curved descender with a connected stroke on both its right and left sides. It should be noted that modern digital text typically relies on font shaping engines to automatically select the correct form, making the direct use of this isolated Unicode representation unnecessary for most applications.
