The author does not mention ikhfāʾ alone. The text also allows iẓhār before bāʾ with an explicit condition: the mīm must not be one converted from sākin nūn or tanwīn. This is therefore not an unrestricted permission for every mīm–bāʾ sequence.
For practice, first master the primary rule of ikhfāʾ. Treat the other wording as the book’s qualified reading discussion, not a license to invent a new pronunciation without the supervision of a qualified reciter.
