U+FEF4 ARABIC LETTER YEH MEDIAL FORM: ﻴ – Unicode

U+FEF4 was added in Unicode version 1.1 in 1993. It belongs to the block U+FE70 to U+FEFF Arabic Presentation Forms-B in the U+0000 to U+FFFF Basic Multilingual Plane.

This character is a Other Letter and is mainly used in the Arabic script.

The glyph is a medial version of the glyph Arabic Letter Yeh. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it is written as Arabic letter from right to left. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+FEF4 forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it. The glyph can be confused with one other glyph.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

Yodh (also spelled jodh, yod, or jod) is the tenth letter of the Semitic abjads, including Arabic yāʾ ي‎, Aramaic yod 𐡉, Hebrew yud י‎, Phoenician yōd 𐤉, and Syriac yōḏ. Its sound value is /j/ in all languages for which it is used; in many languages, it also serves as a long vowel, representing /iː/.
The Phoenician letter gave rise to the Greek Iota (Ι), Latin I and J, Cyrillic І, Coptic iauda (Ⲓ) and Gothic eis .
The term yod is often used to refer to the speech sound [j], a palatal approximant, even in discussions of languages not written in Semitic abjads, as in phonological phenomena such as English "yod-dropping".
