Have a look at “How to look up a symbol?” for ideas how you can easily find a particular symbol.

"Also is the last letter an 'l'?" No, it is an "i" whose dot is replaced with a macron (i.e. straight line above) ;-)

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}
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}

for pdflatex the same would work but you need to addDeclareUnicodeCharacter{1E25}{d{h}}
in current releases.

Here it is:
documentclass{report}

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.

you could use={i}
or more simply={i}
butī
is possibly simpler.
