And their saying: 'Whoever supports a tyrant, Allah will empower him against them' is mentioned in His saying: 'He has decreed that whoever takes him as an ally, He will misguide him.'
يُضِلُّهُ — will misguide him. This is a present verb 'he leads astray, misguides' with the attached 'him' as object, pointing to the ally-taker. The 'he' doer is God. One word carries 'He will misguide him', the suffix tracking the person who befriended the tyrant. It is the decreed consequence.
