Browser is not printing hard coded persian characters in codeigniter-3

I am trying to print URL by using below:

$url = (isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] === 'on' ? "https" : "http") . "://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]";

It prints english URL fine but persian URL shows as below:

<link rel="canonical" href="https://www.example.com/8897-%D8%A7%DB%8C%D9%86%D9%B9%DB%8C%DA%A9-%D8%B1%D9%88%DB%8C%D9%86%D8%AC?lang=per"/>

Though the fields which are selected from database print in persian fine as below:

<title>اینٹیک روینج</title>

But when saved in php file (hard coded) turns into ?????? after saving.

snapshot of the is as below:

<title>اینٹیک روینج</title> ------> This is persian script what is selected from Database

<meta property="og:title" content="??????????"> -----> This is the persian script as above which was saved directly in this php file

<link rel="canonical" href="https://www.example.com/7657-%D8%A7%DB%8C%D9%86%D9%B9%DB%8C%DA%A9-%D8%B1%D9%88%DB%8C%D9%86%D8%AC?lang=per"/> -----> This is he persian script what we capture from URL

Though to compare URL part with stored slug urldecode(auto_link($url)); works fine but I need to print them to show canonical URL

  1. My Server host is RHEL 7 and I am using php 5.6, php.ini configuration is:

    ; PHP's default character set is set to UTF-8.

    ; http://php.net/default-charset

    default_charset = "UTF-8"

  2. For more information -> I have the setting in codeigniter 3 config.php as:

    $config['charset'] = 'UTF-8';

  3. I have declared below in html head:

  4. Also in php I have declared

    header('Content-Type: text/html; charset="utf-8"');

To print your URL: https://www.example.com/8897-اینٹیک-روینج?lang=per

Use this

$url = urldecode((isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] === 'on' ? "https" : "http") . "://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]");

<link rel="canonical" href="<?=$url?>"/>

or you can do it in a single line

<link rel="canonical" href="<?=urldecode($url)?>"/>
