ℹ️ About

The Arabic Small High Lam Alef (ۙ) is a specialized Nonspacing Mark (Mn) used primarily in Quranic scripture. It serves as a Waqf (stop) mark, specifically indicating a “Mandatory Stop” (Waqf Lazim) in certain traditions, though its specific interpretation can vary by regional recitation style. As a combining character with a Combining Class of 230 (Above), it is always rendered directly over a base Arabic letter without occupying its own horizontal space.
