فَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ تُقَاوِمُ قُوَّتُهُ دَاءَهُ فَتَقْهَرُهُ وَيَكُونُ السُّلْطَانُ لِلْقُوَّةِ
Among people are those whose strength resists their disease; it overcomes the illness, and power belongs to strength.
تُقَاوِمُ it resists
A present-tense verb in the feminine form, and that feminine ending matters: it tells you the doer is the feminine noun 'strength' coming next, not the person. Arabic marks the verb to agree with its real subject even before that subject is spoken.
