The bidi class of ARABIC LETTER GRAF is Right-to-Left Arabic (Strong). It belongs to the strong right-to-left characters..

The Right-to-Left Arabic (AL) bidi class is similar to the Right-to-Left (R) class, but it specifically applies to Arabic script characters and characters from other scripts that behave similarly. This class is important for the correct handling of Arabic text in bidirectional contexts, ensuring that it aligns properly with the overall text direction.

Other Letter (Lo) refers to letters that do not fit into the uppercase, lowercase, titlecase, or modifier letter categories. These include letters from scripts that do not have case distinction, such as Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, and others. This category is also used for syllabic and ideographic characters that function as letters.

This character belongs to the Arabic Extended-A block. The Arabic Extended-A block contains additional characters used in the Arabic script, which is used for writing the Arabic language as well as several other languages across the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia. This block includes characters that extend the basic Arabic script to accommodate the orthographic needs of additional languages and dialects. These characters are essential for accurately representing the diverse linguistic landscape of the regions where Arabic script is used, reflecting the script’s versatility and adaptability..
