ℹ️ About

The Arabic Letter Gaf (U+06AF) is a critical extension of the Arabic script used to represent the /ɡ/ sound, which is absent in standard Arabic. It is a staple in Persian, Urdu, Sindhi, and Pashto orthographies. It belongs to the “Other Letter” category and supports contextual joining (Isolated, Initial, Medial, and Final forms).

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ک (Kaf, U+06A9). Gaf is distinguished by its additional parallel stroke.
