ℹ️ About

The Arabic Small High Ligature Qaf With Lam With Alef Maksura (ۗ) is a specialized Nonspacing Mark (Mn) used in Qur’anic orthography. It serves as a Waqf (pause) mark, specifically representing “Al-Waqfu Awla,” which signals that pausing at this point in recitation is preferred, though continuing is permissible. As a combining character, it is designed to sit directly above a base Arabic letter.

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ۖ (U+06D6), which indicates continuing is better.
