There is no letter "c" in Arabic for a variety of reasons.

Firstly, even though both the Arabic and Roman alphabets are derivatives of the Phoenician alphabet, the Roman alphabet developed the letter "c" from the repositioning of the Greek gamma (Γ, γ) or "g". The gamma in Arabic became the jim (ج) that is pronounced either with an English "j" or a French "j".

Secondly, Arabic is a phonetic language. With very few exceptions, every letter in Arabic is consistently pronounced the same way. The letter "c" in English, the Romance Languages, Slavic Languages, Germanic Languages, and Turkish have a notorious variety of sounds from the English "s", "k", "ch", "hard ch", "ts", j, and "th". Arabic has a different letter (or letter combination) to achieve all of those sounds except for the hard "ch" and are in order (ث، ج، تس، تش، ك، س ) .

Thirdly, if the name "c" is transliterated (i.e. in the name of the radio/tv station BBC) it is usually transliterated as "see" (سي). This is not an Arabic letter, however, and is merely a sound-approximation

This is the kaaf (ك). It is the Arabic equivalent to the English "k". As with all Arabic letters, it changes shape depending on where in the word it sits, so it may look like any of the four forms here (ك ككك).
