Source: Noto Kufi Arabic Source: Browser Default

U+FEEF "" Arabic Letter Alef Maksura Isolated Form is a typographic variant used specifically when the Arabic letter alef maksura appears in isolation, meaning it is not connected to any preceding or following letters. This form is distinct from the initial, medial, and final shapes of the same letter, and it functions primarily in printed or digital Arabic text for proper calligraphic representation. The alef maksura represents the long vowel sound "ā" or a final yā-like consonant, commonly found at the end of nouns and verbs, and belongs to the Unicode block Arabic Presentation Forms-A, which is designed for contextual shaping rather than modern standard encoding sequences.
