Thanks. On my system, this is displayed correctly, with kasrah above the letter. So I don't think it's Emacs, I think it's the shaping engine you are using. As you didn't provide the information collected by "M-x report-emacs-bug", I can only guess what is that shaping engine: XFT and libflt, right? Maybe you could try building the harfbazz branch, which uses HarfBazz for shaping, I'd expect this problem not to exist there.
