  Their distinguishing mark on their faces is from the trace of prostration.

  سيماهم — their distinguishing mark. This noun has -hum, the 'their' possessor, fused to its end, so one word means 'their mark'. It is the topic of the sentence, the distinguishing sign being described. The possessor folds the owners into the noun rather than using a separate word.
