Source: Browser Default
U+FEF9 "ﻹ" Arabic Ligature Lam with Alef with Hamza Below Isolated Form is a typographic ligature that represents the combination of the Arabic letters Lam (ل) and Alef with Hamza Below (إ) in their isolated form, used at the beginning of a word or in stand-alone contexts. This character is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, which includes precomposed forms to support specific typographic traditions and legacy text rendering. In standard Arabic text, the two components are typically written separately as "لإ", but the ligature U+FEF9 is encoded as a single character to preserve stylistic conventions in certain fonts and historical texts, where the joined shape appears as a single cursive unit with the Hamza below the Alef.
