Had he looked with insight, he would have known that safety lies in avoiding what is feared in its outcome.

يُخْشَى is feared

This verb is in the passive: the thing is feared, with no named fearer, the subject undergoing the dread rather than causing it. Arabic marks the passive by the internal vowel pattern, not a helper word, which is why it looks close to its active twin but flips the role.
