Match whole string in regex

I have string for example: hasan عمرانی. I want to match persian chars for the whole string. I mean if the string is not entirely persian the regex doesn't match any character.

I have this pattern so far:[\x{0600}-\x{06FF}\s]+. but it matches عمرانی. It must not match any of the string.

please help me to provide a pattern. Thanks.

You can add ^ at the beginning of your expression and $ at the end, to try to match from the beginning to the end of the string being searched.

^[\x{0600}-\x{06FF}\s]+$

Tested it and it works on Regex101

You can use \p{Old_Persian} property instead of range:

^\p{Old_Persian}+$
