A present-tense verb meaning 'rears / nurtures them', with its feminine 'it' subject built in to agree with the earth, and an attached 'them' object for the creatures. Following the noun, this verb works as a description of the earth, 'rearing them', so the present tense paints its ongoing care.

وعلى علي الذي من زمن الطفولية في الإسلام ربي،
And upon Ali, who was nurtured in Islam since childhood.
رَبِّي was nurtured
A past-tense verb in the passive voice with 'he was raised' built in, so Ali is the one nurtured, not the nurturer. Arabic marks this passive by the inner vowel pattern rather than a helper word, leaving the one who raised him unnamed.
