تَائِبًا repentant
This is an active participle, a describing word built from a verb, used here to state the condition the subject was in while doing the previous action: he came while in a repentant state. Its indefinite accusative tail ending is what signals this 'how/while' adverbial role, a slot English usually fills with a separate phrase.
