Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ئ has the Unicode code point U+0626. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thexare the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+0626 to binary:
00000110 00100110. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:

Description
The Unicode character U+0626 represents Arabic Letter YeH With Hamza Above in digital text. This letter is primarily used within the Arabic script, which is one of the most widely spoken languages globally. It is a Semitic language predominantly used by more than 423 million people worldwide, mainly in countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, and Syria. The character U+0626 is part of the extended Arabic presentation forms, which include additional diacritics to indicate pronunciation, vowelization, and other phonetic characteristics. In terms of cultural significance, Arabic script has a rich history that dates back to the 7th century when it was developed from the Aramaic alphabet. Today, it plays an essential role in religious texts, literature, and daily communication for millions of speakers. The Unicode Consortium, which manages the encoding standards for text, added U+0626 to its database to support the accurate representation of Arabic texts across various digital platforms and applications.
