Rather, how can it befit Him to support, aid, exalt, manifest, and empower him over the people of truth while he sheds their blood, justifying their wealth, children, and women, claiming:
يَسْفِكُ — while he sheds. This is a present-tense verb 'he sheds', its subject carried inside, opening a circumstance clause, 'while he sheds...'. Arabic often uses a bare present verb like this to mean 'doing so while...', describing the state accompanying the main action.
