ℹ️ About

The Arabic Subscript Alef (U+0656) is a combining diacritical mark used in the Arabic script, specifically in Quranic orthography and certain linguistic traditions to indicate a long ‘i’ sound or specific vocalization. As a Nonspacing Mark with a combining class of 220 (Below), it renders directly underneath the base character it follows.

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ٰ (U+0670 Superscript Alef), which appears above the character.
