From Reflecting on God's Names

فَإِنْ قَالَ قَائِلٌ ذِكْرُ حِكَايَاتِ الْحُمْقَىٰ وَالْمَغْفِلِينَ يُوجِبُ الضَّحْكَ،

If someone says: telling the stories of fools and the gullible causes laughter,

يُوجِبُ causes

A present-tense causative verb (the 'makes/forces it to happen' pattern), with its subject ('it', the telling) built in. So the long subject-phrase before it is what causes the laughter, and the verb supplies the 'brings about' action.

From Permissible Laughter and Conduct

وَالْكَرَمُ يُوجِبُ الْمُسَامَحَةَ،

And generosity requires forgiveness.

يُوجِبُ requires

A present-tense verb, 'he/it' form, with the doer being 'generosity' named just before it. The point worth noticing is that its subject is that abstract noun, not a person, so the sentence treats a quality as if it actively imposes something. It then governs the noun after it as the thing required.
