Example sentence

قَالَ تَعَالَى وَمَنْ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا

He (Allah) said: 'And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, to abide in it, and Allah's wrath is upon him, and He has cursed him and prepared for him a great punishment.'

فَجَزَاؤُهُ so his recompense

This fronts fa- onto a noun 'recompense' with 'his' attached - 'then his recompense [is]'. The fa- here is the result-marker that answers the conditional 'whoever kills...': it ties the consequence to the condition, like 'then'. The attached 'his' points back to the killer, and the noun heads the verdict clause naming his punishment.
