For the plural mīm, the book gives ḍammah rather than the general kasrah. Its examples are عَلَيْكُمُ الصِّيَامُ and عَلَيْهِمُ الْقِتَالُ.
At the junction, «مْ» is pronounced «مُ» to avoid the forbidden meeting. Practice: say «عَلَيْكُمْ» independently, then join it into «عَلَيْكُمُ الصِّيَامُ». Change the mīm only in the joining environment.
