What 𞹑 means
It marks a distinct mathematical form of Arabic ṣād. Arabic mathematical handbooks used this alphabetic tradition in manuscripts and print for many centuries.
Moroccan handbooks used this notation before French-style notation was adopted, and a 1987 convention in Amman helped standardize it. Tailed, looped, and other letter styles can carry mathematical distinctions; these symbols do not reshape to join ordinary Arabic text.

1Why does 𞹑 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
