Find a font that has the glyph (Gentium, Linux Libertine, Times New Roman, Brill, etc.). The default Computer Modern version also works with fontspec.



Compile with xelatex or lualatex:



documentclass{article}
usepackage{fontspec}
setmainfont{Gentium}


begin{document}

Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī?

Yes, Mud{h}ammad ibn M={u}s={a} al-Khw={a}rizm={i}!

end{document}


enter image description here



You may be able to set up shortcuts in your editor if you're writing a lot of those diacritics.



If you want the same font as your example (Charis SIL):



setmainfont{Charis Sil}


enter image description here

    why use ascii accent input, isn't it simpler just to use the text as in the question title?

  • @TertulianoMáximoAfonso, I mean, just compile with xelatex then. As David said, no need for special ascii input. I just used it as an example.

Here it is:



enter image description here



documentclass{report}
begin{document}
Mud{h}ammad ibn M={u}s={a} al-Khw={a}rizm={i}
end{document}


The last letter is a dotless i (produce by i) with bar above it.
