Example sentence

وَإِنَّ الْشَّيْطَانَ لَيَفِرُّ مِنَ الْعَاقِلِ

And indeed Satan flees from the sensible person.

لَيَفِرُّ indeed flees

The leading 'la-' here is an emphasis marker that pairs with the earlier 'inna' to drive the claim home, signalling 'truly does flee'. After it comes a present-tense verb carrying its own 'he' subject inside it, so no separate pronoun is needed. The combination is a fixed way Arabic builds an emphatic 'indeed he flees'.
