ℹ️ About

The Arabic Hamza Above (U+0654) is a nonspacing diacritic used to represent a glottal stop. Unlike a standalone Hamza, this combining mark is designed to sit atop a base letter (like Alef, Waw, or Ya). It is a fundamental component of Arabic orthography, specifically within the Nonspacing Mark (Mn) category, and has a combining class of 230 (Above).

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ء (U+0621 Arabic Hamza) which is a base character, not a combining mark.
